A Crossroads for US-Latin America Relations

Despite close proximity, Latin America is a historically overlooked area of U.S. foreign policy. Muni Jensen, who co-hosts the Altamar podcast, joins Laura to discuss the incoming Biden administration’s likely priorities in the region, such as economic reform, climate change, and the impact of U.S.-China competition on Latin America.

The two also talk about the unrelenting coronavirus pandemic, protests highlighting economic and social inequality in Argentina and Colombia, and political turmoil in Peru.
