“Look, I don't think President Obama would have bowed to the ruler of Saudi Arabia if he didn't have oil to the degree that the Saudis do.

“In Latin America, in the past, it was almost impossible to guarantee democracy. There were military dictatorships, and nowadays there are not so many military dictatorships. Although we have a dictator in Honduras, as a result of a coup, now as a president, he is almost the only one I would say. But again led or managed, gestated by the U.S. government.” GovernmentAmericaPastPresidentResultsDemocracyImpossibleMilitaryGuaranteesLatinDictatorshipDictatorLatin AmericaCoupsHonduras Author:Evo Morales
