Argentina president says West seeking to destabilize Latin America
2015-04-13
[Iran Press TV] Argentine President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner has slammed the West's "soft" campaign to destabilize Latin American countries.

During her address at the 35-nation Summit of the Americas in Panama City on Saturday, she said the attempts always originate in some NGOs that "we never know who finance them."

She warned that the destructive attempts "aim at the destabilization of governments in the region, of the governments that have done the most for equality, for education and social inclusion."

Pointing to the "major accomplishments" of the Latin American governments in the areas of human rights
...which often include carefully measured allowances of freedom at the convenience of the state...
, social inclusion, health, and education, Kirchner said the West lends support to "governments with neoliberal policies that shattered people."

She also denounced the Western attempts to combat "governments that can show their credentials of having been the ones that have included their countrymen the most."
Elsewhere in her remarks, the Argentine president criticized the UK for considering her nation a "threat" and thus justifying an increase in its military presence in the Malvinas Islands, known as the Falklands to the British.
