The Summit of the Americas took place last weekend in Colombia, and according to Reuters, United States was more isolated than ever from Latin American countries. Evo Morales of Bolivia said it was a united front of Latin America against the United States. A lot of this was over the question of Cuba and whether Cuba could attend the next Summit of the Americas, but not only about Cuba.
While according to Alex Main, a senior associate for international policy at the Center for Economic and Policy Research in Washington, the United States had limited expectations going into the Summit, it was nontheless overshadowed by the involvement of some Secret Service and U.S. soldiers’ involvement with at least one Colombian prostitute.
