A script for soft coups is being applied in Latin America,Samper says

Montevideo, Oct 28 (Prensa Latina) A soft coup script is being applied in Latin America to hinder governance conditions, former Colombian President Ernesto Samper said here.

In an interview with La Diaria, Samper pointed out that such preparations could be being applied against the governments of Colombia, Brazil and Chile.

He said that with such purpose they sow mistrust in the economy, they speak of dissatisfaction in the military forces.

They also create institutional conflicts between the control agencies and the Executive and judicialize politics.

“These factors added together produce reputational damage that ends up making it almost impossible to govern,” he emphasized.

Another phenomenon that distorts politics are social media, where “they are selling emotional situations – fear, resentment, blame, hatred – which are the specialty of the right wing”, he said.

He detailed that all this is happening in Colombia where “we have an opposition that follows the script of what has been happening in Latin America”.
