As political tides turn in Latin America, AMLO is vying to position the country as a regional leader.

The U.S. cannot inject itself strongly into the unrest because it must be viewed as “an issue between the Cuban people and their oppressors," said AS/COA's Eric Farnsworth to RealClearPolitics.

"Cuba in ferment, Haiti in chaos, Venezuela heading to negotiations...and still no Senate-confirmed Assistant Secretary of State for the Western Hemisphere," said Eric Farnsworth in Bloomberg.

Both superpowers are pivotal to the country. Choosing is not an option.

"The assassination of President Jovenel Moïse has amplified the political knife’s edge on which Haiti has long perched," writes AS/COA Vice President Eric Farnsworth for the New York Post.

"We stand with the people of Haiti during this difficult time," said AS/COA President and CEO Susan Segal.

The AS/COA Online editor-in-chief joined the U.S.-Mexico Foundation's podcast to discuss bilateral priorities, the U.S. vice president's June visit, and more.
