موقف الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية من الانتخابات الرئاسية في تشيلي 1964

Abstract EN

The United States has maintained its economic and political interests in the world in general and in the Latin American region in particular, especially with the intensification of the US-Soviet competition during the Cold War.

After the collapse of General Fulgencio Batista in Cuba and the Communist rise to power there, the Soviets had a foothold in (Western Hemisphere).

With the rise of communist currents in Latin American countries as well as Chile's economic importance to the United States, the latter saw the need to intervene indirectly to support a pro-US party to prevent communists from gaining Li last foothold in Chile.

So the United States intervened in Chile's presidential election in 1964 for the Christian Democrats to come to power.
