Diese Firma war schon immer problematisch im Kontext des US-amerikanischen Imperialismus, da sie eng mit der wirtschaftlichen und politischen Einflussnahme der USA in Mittelamerika verbunden war. United Fruit kontrollierte große Bananenplantagen in Ländern wie Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras und Panama und übte erheblichen Einfluss auf die lokalen Regierungen aus, #geschichte

Inside #OperationPBSuccess, When The #CIA And A #BananaCompany Destroyed #Guatemalan #Democracy

Updated November 9, 2023"In 1954, Operation PBSuccess dismantled Guatemala’s newfound democracy — so that an American fruit company could continue to profit off the old government’s #corruption.
"Throughout the early 20th century, an American multinational corporation called the United Fruit Company — now known as #ChiquitaBrands International — controlled vast swaths of Guatemalan land and production. Aided by a corrupt #autocracy, it received little pushback over decades of economic #exploitation.
"But in the 1940s, a democratic #revolution and calls for #justice threatened to undermine United Fruit’s position. So the company leveraged its powerful connections inside the #WhiteHouse — painting the new Guatemalan government as a dangerous #Communist administration in the process.
"As a result, the CIA launched Operation PBSuccess: a sweeping coup that destroyed the country’s democracy, installed a dictator, and sparked a decades-long #CivilWar and genocide of the #Indigenous #Mayan people.

1954: #Guatemala
"In 1954, the #CIA orchestrated another coup of a democratically elected leader: Guatemalan President Jacobo Árbenz. The CIA #coup, code-named Operation PBSuccess, replaced the president with military dictator Carlos Castillo Armas in the name of stopping the spread of communism. However, the CIA’s main motivation for ousting Árbenz was the fear that his land reforms would threaten the interests of the American-owned #UnitedFruitCompany, which owned 42 percent of the nation’s land and paid no taxes.
High-ranking officials in the Eisenhower administration had close ties to the company: Secretary of State John Foster Dulles had worked for United Fruit’s U.S. law firm, and his brother, CIA director Allen Dulles, sat on its board. The CIA continued toppling Latin American governments; in the first year of the Kennedy administration, it backed an assassination in the Dominican Republic and, under Lyndon B. Johnson, it executed a 1964 coup in Brazil."https://www.history.com/news/us-overthrow-foreign-governments
