One might say, if this were a test being done by a human in a history class, that the answer is 100% incorrect given the actual record of events and failure of statement to mention that actual record. You can argue the causes but that’s not

I think USAID could certainly be classified as “soft power.” I think throwing it all out makes little sense in light of the provably good things it did.

Yep and yep. Did it on two models and by myself — you know if you ask them to cite similar problems (and their sources) I’ll think you’ll quickly realize how derivative your question is in both question and solution. Given that you’re now a
