13. United States in Latin America: Operation Condor
During the 1970s and early 1980s, the U.S. supported Operation Condor, a covert campaign by South American dictatorships targeting political dissidents. This collaboration led to widespread human rights abuses, including disappearances and executions. The U.S. provided intelligence and logistical support to these regimes, contributing to regional instability. Declassified documents reveal that U.S. officials were aware of and facilitated these operations (tandfonline.com).
