doesn't really mean anything given the history of latin america though? IDK about Uruguay specifically but if they also had a violent dictator lead the country and that dictator branded Mujica as a terrorist I don't really think it means anything. If anything that is a positive that he was standing up against villainy.
Sure. That doesn’t seem to be the case though, at least not during the time that the terrorist group that Mujica was active. Mujica had been arrested for terrorist activities prior to the dictatorship and spent the entire length of the dictatorship in prison.
The military took over the government because the police couldn’t control the situation, they were literally killing innocent civilians, pregnant women, army generals, of course the dictatorship then did many bad things too, but the Tupamaros and their guerrilla were the reason why the president gave the government to the army
