Re: H-Diplo Article Review 844- Turek on Cangemi. “Ambassador Frank Ortiz and Guatemala’s ‘Killer President,’ 1976–1980.”

Thanks so much for sharing this article review. It is interesting how Cangemi points to the lack of support from the State Department rather than Ortiz's relationship to the Lucas government. The fragile relationship between supporting Lucas and advocating for human rights adds greater complexity to the already complex Cold War in Guatemala. As Lauren Turek points out, I wonder what Ortiz, and thereby Cangemi, considers "democratic change." Following reading this review, I am curious of what global narrative is present during the Carter administration regarding human rights policy.
