Already in office longer than any other current Latin American leader save Mr. Castro, Mr. Ch\u00e1vez, who was first elected in 1998, has undeniably become a spokesman for the millions of poor in Latin America who reject globalization in their search for another way.<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tL’avantage de Chavez sur Castro, note le journal, c’est le p\u00e9trole, qui lui donne un poids \u00e9conomique et strat\u00e9gique que n’avait pas Castro. Sa capacit\u00e9 de rassemblement est aussi beaucoup plus forte que celle de Castro parce que l’entrave du communisme en tant que mouvement subversif transnational n’existe plus. Au contraire du temps du castrisme, il n’y a pas de mobilisation anti-Chavez comme il y eut une mobilisation anti-castriste dans certains groupes de droite en Am\u00e9rique Latine, voire dans certains gouvernements. La mont\u00e9e de la popularit\u00e9 de Chavez accompagne un glissement acc\u00e9l\u00e9r\u00e9 des pays du continent vers des gouvernements de centre-gauche ou de gauche qui lui manifestent une r\u00e9elle sympathie.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\t\u00ab He’s following his own path, his own destiny, and he’s doing it against U.S. opposition, so the Latin Americans support it, said Wayne Smith, a former American diplomat in Cuba and now a senior fellow at the Center for International Policy, which tracks developments in Latin America. That’s sort of the reaction, and it plays toward his advantage in the region.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bb Mr. Ch\u00e1vez is also riding a wave of popular reaction in the region against the Washington consensus’ of democracy and open markets that the White House, for the moment, seems unable to dampen. While few leaders in Latin America are as provocatively anti-American as Mr. Ch\u00e1vez, three-quarters of South America is governed by left-of-center presidents, and next year Mexico may well elect a leftist populist of its own, Mexico City’s mayor, Andr\u00e9s Manuel L\u00f3pez Obrador.<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tPlus que tout le reste, ceci rapproche Chavez de Castro, selon le m\u00eame Wayne Smith cit\u00e9 ci-dessus: \u00ab I’ve always said that Cuba has the same effect on American administrations that the full moon has on werewolves. That werewolf effect now applies to Ch\u00e1vez also.<\/em> \u00bb Ainsi terminerions-nous en observant que le plus remarquable dans cet article du NYT ait qu’il ait \u00e9t\u00e9 publi\u00e9, car il constitue sans aucun doute un des textes les plus aptes \u00e0 plonger l’administration GW dans une grande fureur. C’est le signe le plus s\u00fbr du poids grandissant de Chavez: m\u00eame la presse US conformiste ne peut plus ignorer la force et l’influence politiques qu’il repr\u00e9sente d\u00e9sormais.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Le New York Times nous explique (le 1er juin), avec une audace inhabituelle ces temps-ci pour la presse am\u00e9ricaine, que le V\u00e9n\u00e9zuelien Hugo Chavez est en train de s’imposer comme un nouveau Castro, notamment par son charisme et son antiam\u00e9ricanisme qui \u00e9tendent sa popularit\u00e9 bien au-del\u00e0 des fronti\u00e8res de son pays.
