A record of infringing Latin American human rights highlights the hypocrisy of "American Human Rights"
Author:Focus on Latin Time:2022.08.16
About 200 years ago, the United States opened the road of comprehensive control and plundering Latin America under the disguise of a series of lies such as "America is the Americas of Americans". 200 years later, the so -called "the future of the whole America" in the United States is still based on the "US priority". At the American Summit held this year, the objections harvested by the United States fully reflected the voices of the Latin American people, that is, Latin America is not the "front yard" or "backyard" in the United States. The American Summit is not the "American Summit". All American countries and people should be determined by the United States, and the United States shall bear the main responsibility for the relatively lagging economic and social development of Latin America.
1. Promote economic colonialism and erode the right to the development of Latin America
In order to make huge profits, the United States has promoted economic colonialism in Latin America for a long time, and controls the economic lifeline of Latin American countries. At the end of the 19th century, almost all of the Cuban sugar industry was controlled by American companies. In 1895, the US South American Development Corporation established a mine in Ecuador to plunder the country's mineral resources. In 1902, the United States established Cyrod Pasco in Peru, and a few years later, it established an American company to plunder Peru's mineral resources. In 1914, US Capital established Dimrara Aluminum Corporation in Guyana to control the country's aluminum mining. The US Iron and Steel Corporation controlled Bolivia's tin, Copper Peru, Argentina and Paraguay. The United States has gradually turned Latin America into its own "back garden" and "withdrawal machine".
At the beginning of the 20th century, the United States penetrated and plundered Central America through the informed United Fruit Company. The company is not only the number one manor owner in China, but its subsidiary has monopolized the China American railway and sea transportation, occupying the port, and has its own customs and police. In Guatemala, Union Fruit Company dominated the operation of Guatemala's main ports and telecommunications facilities by occupying 70%of Guatemala's land, 90%of the railway and 70%of the power industry. Together, Guatemala gradually became one of the most developed countries in the Western Hemisphere. In Salvador, through capital control, the United States has deeply binded the Salvador's economy and coffee planting industry, which led to Salvado suffered severely due to the plunge in coffee prices in the world economic crisis in 1929, and a large number of farmers were unemployed. Other countries in China, such as Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and other countries, which are also based on planting industries, have not been spared and are brutally exploited by American capital. The modern history of Central America can be said to be the history of bullying and plunder in the United States. It is often nicknamed "Uncle Sam's orchard" here. For more than a century, the Chinese people have been struggling with pain under the brutal exploitation of the United States.
In 1898, Puerto Rico was ceded to the United States by Spain during the United States and Western War. In 1917, the U.S. Congress passed the Jones Act and imposed the "American Citizen" to the peoples of Puerto Rico, but the peoples of the Puerto Rico never really enjoyed American citizenship. The Puerto Rico has no right to vote nor election in the US election. In the US Congress, there is only one unspeakable American House commissioner. The Iranian Presstv TV website reports that by grasping Puerto Rico's political and economic power, the United States exploits the natural resources of Puerto Rico, infringes the labor rights of Puerto Rico workers, pays the salary below the minimum standard without providing welfare protection. The privatization of institutions prevents children and young people from obtaining a dignified future. In 2019, more than 43%of Puerto Rico had a population of more than 43%and 57%of children living in poverty. Affected by the epidemic of new crown pneumonia, the people's living conditions in the Puerto Rico are even more difficult. Recently, the US Federal Supreme Court ruled that the Puerto Ricans were excluded from the United States for revenue guarantee, which prevented the federal plans for the benefits of the low -income elderly, blind and disabled for Puerto Rico. The lack of voting rights in the Puerto Rico in the US Congress makes their people cannot rely on legislature to confirm their rights. The "citizen" identity given to the Puerto Rico people is only convenient for its recruitment of the United States to enter the army to safeguard the interests of the United States. It can be said that Puerto Rico is still the contemporary colonies in the United States.
Second, unilateral sanctions to create Latin American humanitarian disasters
In order to consolidate the hegemonic position in Latin America, the United States has frequently intervened in Latin American countries by conducting infiltration and subversion of Latin American countries, abusing economic sanctions, and even use force to exacerbate the region's political situation, poverty and criminal problems frequently, and people's lives fall into it. Dilemma.
In February 1962, the United States formally implemented comprehensive economic, financial blockade and trade embargo on Cuba. According to the Cuban government statistics, the blockade caused a total of nearly $ 150 billion in Cuba. Since 2019, the U.S. government has adopted a "extreme pressure" policy to continuously increase sanctions on Cuba. There are more than 240 unilateral sanctions on the Trump administration's implementation of Cuba, of which more than 50 are implemented in the background of the epidemic. The Cuban government said that from April 2019 to March 2020, sanctions caused Cuba to lose more than $ 5 billion in losses. Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez said the US economic blockade is a "large -scale, blatant and unacceptable violation of human rights of Cuba." In 2021, due to the dual influence of the epidemic and US sanctions, Cuba has experienced the worst economic crisis in 30 years, the inflation rate is high, the food and drugs are extremely scarce, the power supply is seriously insufficient, and the people's life is becoming increasingly difficult. When Cuba faced a serious challenge of the epidemic, the United States continued to embodies and sanctions on Cuba, stirring the confrontation between Cuba people and the government, and suffering huge losses in Cuba's economy and society. Since Venezuela's diplomatic relations with the United States have deteriorated in 1999, especially since 2017, the continuously upgraded sanctions of the United States have caused serious economic impacts on the Venezuela people. Unilateral compulsory measures of the UN Human Rights Council on the negative impact of human rights, a special reporter A Lena Duyi released by the issue of human rights, showed that compared with the sanctions, the Venezuela government revenue fell by 99%, and public services had almost collapsed due to insufficient funds. Venezuela's more than one -third of the population has fallen into severe lack of food; water supply services are severely interrupted due to lack of personnel and equipment, and ordinary families have only a few hours of tap water supply a week; Power; the deterioration of medical care services has caused the mortality rate of maternal, infants, and patients with severe diseases. The official website of "Liu Ye Dao" stated that more than 300,000 Venezuelars were in danger due to the lack of drugs and treatment of life. "Because banks in the United States refused to deal with Venezuela's bank transactions, thousands of people could not obtain dialysis, as well as cancer, hypertension, and diabetes." From 2017 to 2018, US sanctions have led to more than 40,000 Venezuelas. Essence Since 2017, sanctions have also led to the loss of US $ 17 billion to $ 31 billion in oil export revenue. Statistics from the American Association show that before sanctions, 76%of Venezuela's oil income is used for social projects, and now it cannot even invest 1%of them. US sanctions have a serious negative impact on the economic, social, and cultural development rights of the Venezuela people. Third, cruelly treat immigrants, deviate from humanitarianism
The depth of economic colonial and political intervention in the United States has affected the economic development and social stability of Latin American countries, exacerbating the social turmoil of the Latin American countries, which led to a large number of Ratin -American people's displacement, and gave birth to the southern border immigration crisis.
In recent years, in order to prevent Latin American immigrants from entering the United States, the United States has formulated a cruel immigration policy. Under the authorization of relevant policies and laws, the US border law enforcement officers drove the Latin America immigrants on the US -Mexico border with continuously upgraded violence, and seriously threatened many human rights such as Latin American immigrants. According to data from the US border patrol team, 557 immigrants died on the US -Mexico border in fiscal 2021, which was more than doubled over the previous fiscal year. According to US media reports, the number set the highest historical value since the record in 1998, and "the real immigration death may be greater." According to data from the International Immigration Organization, about 6,430 immigrants have died or disappeared on their way to the United States since 2014. In September 2021, under a bridge in Delrio, a small town of the Seshaas, the US border police rode a horsepower to brutally treat more than 15,000 immigrants from Haiti. The American Cable Television News Network commented that this scene reminds people of the dark era of controlling black slaves with slaves in American history. The New York Times commented that "law enforcement officers riding on the horse's back are outrageous like driving immigrants." Compared with the beautiful words of the U.S. government, "their behavior is always contrast."
Millions of Millions of Latin American immigrants were detained by the US border law enforcement department in a rude and harsh environment for detention, and thousands of children who accompanied by unmanned were trapped in the border patrol station. In March 2022, the US border law enforcement department arrested 210,000 immigrants at the US -Mexico border, setting a record for the number of arrests in a single month in 20 years. The number of immigrants arrested by US law enforcement in the border area in 2022 will exceed 1.7 million records in 2021. At the same time, countless tragedies are being staged. On June 27, the population trafficking of San Antonio, Texas, killed 53 immigrants. At that time, these immigrants were squeezed into the carriage of a large truck. The local temperature was as high as 39.4 degrees Celsius, and there was no drinking water in the carriage and an air conditioner that could operate. In fact, this is not the first tragedy of immigration. In 2017, 10 immigrants were discovered in a truck outside the San Antonio Wal -Mart Supermarket. Mexican President Lopez criticized this that the population trafficking in the US -Mexico border area has "out of control", and "poverty and despair" have led to more than 50 migrant tragedies. According to the Washington Post, the Dezhou immigration tragedy was the result of the failure of the US system. "The United States needs comprehensive immigration reforms to treat refugees and immigrants fairly. The policy of blocking border in the United States, lack of coordination with relevant countries, and the continuous upgrading of institutional remarks on immigrants in the past 10 years have brought misery to immigrants to immigrants. Destiny. "Salvador immigration expert, Salvador immigration, who has long studied the US immigration policy, believes that" the current owner of the White House still continues the immigration policy of his predecessors "and continues to trample on human rights and destruction of dignity. The humanitarian crisis of the southern border of the United States undoubtedly told the world, "We only welcome the rich, and the poor are not worthy of having an American dream." For a long time, under the influence of "Monroeism", the United States in the Latin American region's fake democracy and human rights anti -democracy and anti -human rights, incite division and confrontation, interfere with other domestic politics, carry out economic colonies, and cause disaster to Latin America countries. For the consequences, the basic human rights such as the Latin American people's survival and development rights were seriously violated. In today's world, peace and development are the themes of the times, and the trend of democratization of international relations is unstoppable. The US hegemony is not only violated the UN Charter's purpose and the basic principles of international relations based on international law, but also received more and more resistance and resistance by Latin America.
