24. Maijs 2008Comments[..] In the case of Trujillo, the foreign impact on his demise (both personal and political) was even more direct and dramatic. In fact, Howard Wiarda, probably the leading North American student of the Trujillo dictatorship, adjudges the pressures from the international environment to have been largely responsible for actions by the government that triggered (or at least greatly intensified) the forces that eventuated in the assassination of Trujillo in 1961 (uzsvars mans). Thus in the wake of diplomatic and economic sanctions imposed on the Dominican Republic in 1960 by the Organization of American States for aggressive acts against Venezuela (i.e., the attempted assassination of President Romulo Betancourt) Trujillo began to spend lavishly for arms, in turn imposing heavy taxes on many of those who had been his chief supporters. Moreover, according to Wiarda, "the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) assisted in bringing together the conspirators and, in later stages, may even have provided encouragement and even arms to the assassination [of Trujillo].28 The Breakdown of Authoritarian Regimes Author(s): Robert H.

Tas ir besides the point, jo ASV ar to bija vistiešākais sakars:
After concluding that Trujillo must be unseated, the administration contemplated several plans of action. Secretary of State Christian Herter, anxious to avoid unilateral commitment of military forces, encouraged the President to work through the OAS. Eisenhower agreed with this cautious approach, saying "we must not seek to dominate the affair, but must move very carefully, inducing the OAS to take the lead."
