That's their fault!!!! If USA hadn't been bothering us for many decades, russians and chinese wouldn't be here now.
Change your behaviour toward Latin America and things will slowly return to the time of JFK.

Latin America ... the land of banana Republics and tin-pot Dictatorships. Any hint of atomic weaponry and the US will start marching south :-)

I don't see what the US is complaining about, I'm really not surprised if Latin america is looking for new suppliers.......their last tranch of weapons and equipment is sitting in the Imperial war museum kindly donated by the Argentine Armed Forces.

Yes, exactly, Vietnam could become just an anecdote if they dare to invade south America. There are 100000 venezuelan reservist trained to make war of guerrillas. If USA sends soldiers to Venezuela, then all of them will return in boxes.

I think you're missing the atomic point, the US has a policy of “ do unto others before they do unto you”..............
