[[Alfredo Stroessner]] was the President of [[Paraguay]], having been put in power in 1954 by the [[Central Intelligence Agency|CIA]]. His regime was known for protecting [[Nazi Germany|Nazi]] intelligence officers and German scientists with whom the [[United States|U.S.]] government had made deals after [[World War II]]. Stroessner, with his German background and connections to the [[Nazi Party]] during the war, was considered an excellent candidate for the [[Central Intelligence Agency|CIA]] to install, indirectly serving [[United States|U.S.]] interests.[^1]
