Beschreibungen/Notizen
Discusses how strategic competition between the US and Iran in Latin America and Africa remains a critical aspect of any national security discussion. Recent developments in Latin America, Africa, Iran, and elsewhere necessitate a reevaluation of Iran's presence in the region, as well as the threat it poses to the United States. It remains to be seen if Tehran can make good on the development commitments it has made to potential partners, or if its bonds with peripheral states can be institutionalized beyond a personal relationship between heads of state. Iran's plan to restructure the international system in opposition to the Western-led model remains the vision of a few fringe governments and does not appear likely to spread. References.
