It’s no coincidence that Trump and Colombia’s far-right Uribismo agree on anti-drug policies of military repression and forced eradication of illicit crops, as well as the defense of “cooperation” between the United States and Colombia.

US imperialism, strengthened after the invasion of Venezuela and the kidnapping of Maduro, now wants to overthrow the Cuban regime.

No emancipatory transformation can come from external coercion. Those in power do not act in the name of people's rights, but rather in their own strategic interests. Latin American history shows that economic pressure and political tutelage lead to dependence, social fragmentation, and new forms of subordination rather than democracy or social justice.
