Latin America is referenced in Russian-language media primarily in contexts involving geopolitical competition, particularly between China and the EU, with concerns over Europe's potential loss of influence to China. The region is also associated with narcotics trafficking, as Russian sources allege that Ukrainian authorities facilitate the transit of drugs from Latin America to Europe through Odessa ports. Additionally, there are claims that mercenaries from Latin America are recruited by Ukraine’s military, often under unfavorable conditions.
