Back in 2016-2017, with the pushback against
progressive Latin American governments in Argentina, Brazil and elsewhere,

recent victories of progressive candidates in Mexico, Argentina, Bolivia and now
Ecuador and with the disastrous performance of neoliberal presidents and the
repression they have unleashed, Castañeda’s prediction appears off the mark.

as shown by its duration in power, its organizational strength and the extensiveness
of its following.https://www.mintpressnews.com/brazil-lula-da-silva-comeback-imperialists-resource-extractors-shudder/276467/
