> whatever america wants, it gets from countries subject to the monroe doctrine
The Monroe Doctrine has to do with preventing powers outside the western hemisphere interfering in Latin America, not the US imposing legal jurisdiction over the region which it obviously doesn’t especially given that Ecuador, Cuba, Bolivia, Nicaragua, and Venezuela refuse to extradite despite having extradition treaties with the US. If you mean the US has outright hegemony in Latin America then that is easily falsified simply by pointing to the recent history of Cuba and Venezuela. Certainly the CIA has enormous reach and may have been involved but not necessarily, getting around passport confiscation could probably be handled by the State Department without too much hassle.
