The Iranian President, Mahmud Ahmadinejad affirmed that the security and culture of some Latin American nations are threatened by foreign governments and embassies representing the “empire” (aka USA).

This affirmation does not come as a surprise. There are strong rumours of Iranian financing the Ecuadorian election of Rafael Correa as well as the Paraguayan campaign of Fernando Lugo. Private intelligence agencies from Europe are monitoring through an independent network of sources the Iranian participation in Latin American politics.

The region became the “Eldorado” of political influence. With Brazil more focused on its never ending oil discoveries, Venezuela is putting all efforts in advancing its level of influence in other countries of the region. Iran and Russia, for distinct reasons are doing the same. The participation of the USA is still too focused on Free Trade Agreements, which is an intelligent alternative to the FTAA.
