Why did the NED support the anti-Pinochet vote in the 1988 Chilean referendum?
Despite the US backing the military coup that brought far-right dictator Augusto Pinochet into power in the first place, it appears the NED financed the "No" campaign in the 1988 Chilean referendum with $1 million, the referendum which led to Pinochet's fall from power. Why is this? What led to the US and the Pinochet dictatorship breaking their alliance?
