In a very interesting and applicable article, Reuters tells of the Bush Administration's recent attempts to make friends in the Latin American region. The U.S. is meeting with key leaders in the region due to poor relations in the area. Further, the recent shift towards Leftist ideals among elected leaders has worried the administration. Specifically, the United States has been worried by the influential and charismatic leader of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez. However, it seems that the United States has paid more attention to leaders in Brazil and Argentine and have focused mainly on trade issues. This is all before President Bush plans to take a 5 month tour of the region later in the year. It seems that President Bush is finally realizing the importance of Latin America as a whole and the fact that they will no longer merely be satellites of a stronger global power.
