Chaos: The Trump Doctrine for Latin America
The US, under Trump, is unapologetically an empire operating without pretense. International law is for losers.

For decades, Washington has sold the world a deadly lie: that “regime change” brings freedom, that U.S. bombs and blockades can somehow deliver democracy.

The flimsy moral pretext today is the fight against narcotics, yet the real objective is to overthrow a sovereign government, and the collateral damage is the suffering of the Venezuelan people. If this sounds familiar, that’s because it is. The United States is dusting off its old regime-change playbook in Venezuela. Although the slogan has shifted from “restoring […]
