In an attempt to gauge what a new administration, Joe Biden or Donald Trump, would mean for Latin America policy, the AQ Podcast features people familiar with both sides. In this episode, Ricardo Zuniga, a key figure in Latin America policy under the Barack Obama and Biden administrations, looks back at the major events of the past four years and what will happen if Biden is re-elected in November. Let's see if it changes. He will discuss comprehensive policy strategies for the region, how the United States has addressed China's growing presence in the region, immigration, and trade, as well as discussions with Venezuela, Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, Guatemala, Cuba, and Argentina. The specific dynamics of this relationship are discussed.
Correction: In a previous version of this episode, the podcast host said that Joe Biden has not visited Latin America since becoming president. In fact, Biden visited Mexico in 2023.
