As someone who covered the region for a dozen years for the WSJ, and reported in astonishment how even under conservative Pres Ronald Reagan USAID was funding socialist projects in Latin America, I can assure you that this is 💯 accurate.
Ever since USAID was defunded and thousands of NGO contracts were cancelled, left wing parties are losing in Central and South America.
Right-wing presidential candidate Keiko Fujimori just won the Peru election. This continues the trend of other countries rejected socialism.
