s. hospital. latin american studies professor daniel daniel shaw believes that the current mexican president has a historic chance to and us had gemini in the region. the mexican people can see that its united states is invaded more than 200 times since the monroe doctrine, in 18. 24 was adopted. how many invasions of nic and i were under a suit, panama grenade, of the dominican republic of puerto rico. how many u. s. military bases in panama, under, as in pedro in columbia encircling any country who strives to be. busy self determining such as venezuela nic and i will cuba or bolivia, the united states has no moral standing to try to dictate to the mexican people how they go about solving their own internal issues. whether it has to do with their economy or with this serious problem with the drug cartels. united states is long, had a neo colonial relationship with their neighbors to the south. mexico lopez over though arrives at a historical moment when south america and the caribbean in the 3rd world. and the non aligned countries are standing up forging more unity in integration against.

that's cost life now to daniel shaw, professor of latin american and caribbean to the new york university. daniel, thanks very much for joining us this evening. now, what do you make of this latest plan by the us government to reassert domination over latin america? wouldn't be a reassertion. it would be an ongoing continuation of the same geo political domination that the united states has tried to sustain since the $1824.00. when row doctrine, general laura richardson's tone before the house of representatives is particularly hawkish. usually the u. s. tries to hide behind more humanitarian motors, but she's come out very blatantly and said that really only the eu has us has the right to exploit south america. imagine the park receive thing that china or russia is on the quote unquote 20 yard line of the u. s. homeland. when u. s. military has russia encircled with nato and of course, all of their aggression using taiwan to try to trigger a proxy war against china. so what we really hear out of the mouth of laura richardson is the same old hypocrisy and double standards that we've heard from us
