| Sumario: | The article comments on the policy of U.S. President Ronald Reagan on responding the threat of Soviet Union on its conflict with Afghanistan. It agrees with State Secretary Alexander M. Haig Junior on the urgency of containing Soviet power and ambitions and the failures of former President Jimmy Carter's foreign policy. But it argues that the Reagan-Haig policy will repeat previous failures because it identifies the U.S. interests with short-term stability. It adds that the violence in Guatemala reminds the failure of U.S. anti-communism intervention. |
