Alliances and Progress
The Argentine politician John William Cooke, one of Juan D. Peron's personal representatives, participates in the Cuban resistance against the invaders at the Playa Giron in the Bay of Pigs. Cooke invites Peron to relocate to Cuba, but the former president prefers to go to Spain, where he will live until 1973.
U.S. President John F. Kennedy announces the Alliance for Progress. Argentine officers learn counterinsurgency techniques at the School of the Americas, and Argentine guerrillas are trained in Cuba. Superimposed on Argentina's internal political dynamic are the strategic conflicts of the cold war.
