The Inter-American Dialogue hosted a roundtable discussion on the results of the November 6 elections and their implications for relations between the United States and Latin America.
The discussion focused on the potential for ending partisan gridlock and addressing pressing domestic and foreign policy issues, as well as whether Obama’s policies towards Latin America in the areas of immigration, trade, and drug policy are likely to change.
Peter Hakim, president emeritus and senior fellow; Manuel Orozco, director, Remittances and Development; and Margaret Myers, director, China and Latin America; all of the Inter-American Dialogue are participated in the discussion.
Inter-American Dialogue President Michael Shifter moderated the event.
