Iran's Weapons Now Reach the Western Hemisphere
(1945) Joseph Humire - After more than four decades of systematic penetration of Latin America, Iran is prepositioning military assets and armaments in the region. On July 20, Iranian state media reported on a new bilateral defense agreement between Bolivia and Iran. A few days later, Bolivia's defense minister confirmed that their agreement with Iran includes the transfer of drones. At the same time, Iran-made fast attack craft and anti-ship missiles were on full display at the Venezuelan Navy's bicentennial celebration. The writer is a Visiting Fellow at the Heritage Foundation.
