@revistapiaui These anxieties are hardly unique to Chile: insecurity and the economy are emerging as the decisive issues in upcoming elections in Colombia, Peru, and Brazil in 2026. Kast’s victory thus reflects a broader regional pivot at a moment of geopolitical inflection.

As the U.S. rolls out a new “Donroe Doctrine” and conservative candidates gain ground across Latin America, José Antonio Kast is set to lead Chile’s most right-wing government since the democratic transition of the 1990s. 🧵

Calling the US strike on Venezuela the “first US military attack in Latin America since Panama in 1989” badly understates its significance. Latin America isn’t a single strategic space. What matters is this: it’s the first time the US has attacked South America. 🧵👇

My op-ed made the front page of the New York Times’ int’l. edition today. It argues the rise of Brazil’s Primeiro Comando da Capital (P.C.C.) - which went from prison gang to Latin America’s largest drug cartel in just over a decade - threatens Brazilian democracy & the world.
