Answer 2

QUESTION 1

Answer: the correct answer is A.

Oscar Romero (1917 — 1980) was a public critic of the military dictatorship in El Salvador, the Revolutionary Government Junta. He advocated for the rights of the poor, denounced social injustices, and criticized the crimes of the government against those who fought for equality. He was killed during a Mass; later a UN truth commission concluded his death was ordered by the death squad leader Roberto D'Aubuisson.

QUESTION 2

Answer: the correct answer is A.

The history of Latin America in the 20th century is full of military dictatorships sponsored and/or politically supported by the US.

A few examples are:

1976: Argentinian coup d'etat had the political support of the US and started a military dictatorship that lasted until 1983;

1973: Chile's coup d'etat against the president Salvador Allende kills him in the palace of the government and installs a violent military dictatorship that lasted until 1990. The US had been intervening in Chile politics since 1961 and assisted with the coup and materially supported the dictatorship after its installment;

1964: Brazil's coup d'etat removes president João Goulart and installs a military dictatorship that lasted until 1985. The American embassy in Brazil had been financing candidates opposed to Goulart since 1962 and had ships on the Brazilian coast during the coup in case there was armed resistance against it.
