The United States and its participation in the Summit of the Americas this weekend provides the central theme this week on Latin Pulse. Although the summit has a specific agenda to deal with economic inequality in Latin America, experts expect that diplomacy between the U.S. and Cuba, and U.S. relations with Venezuela will dominate what happens at this meeting. The news segment of the program covers deportations and extraditions concerning former members of the Salvadoran military who sought asylum from prosecution on human rights charges stemming from their actions in the Salvadoran Civil War.The program includes in-depth interviews with:
Eric Olson of the Woodrow Wilson Center; and
Peter Hakim of the Inter-American Dialogue.
Executive Producer: Rick Rockwell;
Producer: Jim Singer; and
Production Assistant: Sierra Hancock.
