Venezuela
Tensions between the U.S. and Venezuela reached a boiling point in the past few years. After an incident in which the country expelled the U.S. ambassador, strain lessened under President Barack Obama, only to decline once again. In 2019, Venezuela announced that it was breaking ties with the U.S. According to Pew data, 35% of Venezuelans have an unfavorable view of America.
Colombia
Colombia–U.S. relations evolved into a partnership due to key issues that linked the two governments, including the War on Drugs and threats of terrorism. Recent Pew data says that 38% of Colombians think poorly of the United States, but 78% of Colombians had a favorable view of President Barack Obama in 2015.
