At the recent Shield of the Americas Summit, representatives from 12 Latin American countries, handpicked by U.S. President Donald Trump, convened to discuss joint security and anti-cartel operations. In today’s episode, I recap the summit and discuss the implications for expats and investors across the region. I’ll dive into where political capital is currently flowing, and how this realignment will shape the future of Latin America. Enjoy today’s episode! IN TODAY’S EPISODE Tune in as I break down Trump’s plan for Latin America, and the second-order effects of controlling crime and cartels. Which countries are most aligned with the United States? Which Latin American countries are investable now, and where is the region going in the next decade? Hear my thoughts on why Chile was represented by President-elect José Antonio Kast, leaving the current administration out in the cold. Learn why who wasn’t invited may matter more than who was—and what that signals for the future of Latin America.   STAY IN TOUCH!
