US intervened in most of the countries of South America. In Brazil they were directly involved the military coup in 1964, sending the US Navy to guarantee the success of the “Operation Brother Sam”, as it was called. There are a lot of documents on the internet talking about the work of Lincoln Gordon as ambassador that contributed directly to the coup.

Edit: found this video in english that explains about their interests in Brazil ( https://youtu.be/LXP4SRq_c8U )

Edit 2: As someone appointed, I think I didn’t express myself the right way, so just to clarify: the US in fact sent the Navy to guarantee that if things went bad, they would support the coup. However, the coup succeeded without the american firepower.

> The Joint Chiefs of Staff met on March 31 to review a revised contingency plan for Brazil, USCINCSO Contingency Plan 2–61. Talking points for the meeting recommended that the JCS deploy a naval task force toward Brazilian waters but defer any decision on whether to provide “covert delivery of arms to the Castello Branco Group.” In the event of civil war in Brazil, however, the United States should “be prepared unilaterally to deliver arms and other material support on an overt basis, employing any available means, to the faction whose victory would best serve U.S. interests.”

"I stand here, members of the national congress, to urge you to take up the task of reconstructing the Chilean nation according to our dreams, a Chile in which all children begin life equally, with equal medical care, education, and nutrition. A Chile in which the creative ability of each man and woman is allowed to develop, not in competition with others, but in order to contribute to a better life for all." - Allende’s first speech to the parliament

Even before Allende was elected president and he was still a senator the CIA poured millions of dollars into anti-Allende propaganda.

President Richard Nixon had ordered the CIA to "make the economy scream" in Chile.

American official Henry Kissinger was quoted by Newsweek in 1974 saying this about Chile: "I don't see why we have to let a country go communist due to the irresponsibility of its own people"

During the strike of the trucking companies, the CIA ( with open backing from Nixon) put 2 million dollars into the strike.

A CIA cable that's been declassified read: "it is firm and continuing policy that Allende be overthrown by a coup."

Just read the wiki page for Project FUBELT to dive in.

Allende’s final speech

"Given the facts, the only thing left for me to say to workers: I am not going to resign! Placed in a historic transition, I will pay for loyalty to the people with my life. And I say to them that I am certain that the seed which we have planted in the good conscience of thousands and thousands of Chileans will not be shriveled forever. They have strength and will be able to dominate us, but social progress can be arrested neither by crime nor force. History is ours, and people make history."

This is one of the many reasons Henry Kissinger is considered a war criminal.
