century when the united states did send the marines and did occupy countries , nicaragua, the dominican republicover and over again. and that didn't really solve the issue either. i think there is really no way for the united states to go in and take over these countries without some kind of protracted military conflicts, which i don't think any of us wants. but you raise an important point, which is that you can't give money to people who are corrupt. and i would agree with you 100% on that and i think the biden administration is actually focusing on that issue, and making the theme of governance, good governance and anticorruption a central component of the current approach. and it says, we are not going to give you money that's just going to be stolen. we are going to insist on transparency and accountability, and the other part of this is that the money isn't just going to go to governments. the idea is to be able to strengthen the organizations in civil society that are pushing for accountability, that are pushing for transparency, international relief organizations and domestic relief orga

agreement that the united states has with central american countries and that includes the dominican republic treat the area as a zone as opposed to individual countries. i think that just as simone, collaborator of south america from spanish colonialism back in the 19th century wanted to ignite south america certainly as one entity and those dreams have been there for a long time and they come up against the ideas of sovereignty a individual states that were carved out of the spanish empire at the time of independence, more or less in the 18 twenties. so i don't think that one overarching government is very realistic goal at this point. there's too much nationalism, too much sense of sovereignty, national identity as small as the country's can be very very strong differences between say costa rica and guatemala and nicaragua. el salvador in terms of how people see themselves. the language, the slang and the customs. the role of indigenous populations as an important part of the national identity as it is in guatemala. i don't think it's very realistic although those dreams of unification of
