The Carter Center’s goal is to advance human rights and alleviate human suffering,[3] including helping improve the quality of life for people in more than 80 countries.[4] The center has many projects including election monitoring, supporting locally led state-building and democratic institution-building in various countries, mediating conflicts between warring states, and intervening with heads of states on behalf of victims of human rights abuses. It also leads disease eradication efforts, spearheading the campaign to eradicate Guinea worm disease, as well as controlling and treating onchocerciasis, trachoma, lymphatic filariasis, and malaria through awareness campaigns.

Just in case someone wants to talk about how this is some sort of American right-wing organization devoted to furthering a CIA agenda.
Also, the Guinea worm campaign has been amazingly effective.
The Carter Center is literally run by a woman who worked for much of her career at USAID, an agency that has directly supported regime change efforts in Latin America.
Between 1993 and 2001, Alexander was USAID’s deputy for the Europe region, focusing on immediate post-conflict reconstruction in the Balkans. After leaving for 10 years to work in a leadership role in the nonprofit sector, Alexander returned to USAID in 2011 as a Presidential appointee to be the assistant administrator for Europe and Eurasia; in 2015, she was again Senate-confirmed to lead the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) Bureau, overseeing 1,000 employees, programs in 12 countries, and more than $1.4 billion in annual funding.

Meaning she had absolutely nothing to do with Latin America or any regime changes.
she had absolutely nothing to do with […] any regime changes
That’s certainly not true if you if you know anything about recent Balkan history.
Between 1993 and 2001, Alexander was USAID’s deputy for the Europe region, focusing on immediate post-conflict reconstruction in the Balkans.
USAID financially supported anti-government organizations in the Balkans in order to foment regime change during her tenure. This isn’t a secret either. That information is publicly available. If she was working at USAID during that time at best she was only tangentially involved.

I had only saw a video of the opposition announcing they’re winning by a wide margin, and thought “good for them! They’ll finally start the hard work of rebuilding their institutions.”
I’m sad that’s not the case.
