Former Chilean president Ricardo Lagos said Tuesday that it would be a “huge mistake” to assume Latin America’s recent election results veer toward the “left,” El Universal reported. Instead, he told the Committee on Latin American Affairs, Spanish Senate, democracy is rising in the region as voters focus on the opportunity for change. Lagos did acknowledge that the “division of power” in Venezuela, Bolivia and Ecuador is troubling, but dismissed the idea of a Chávez influence. -Contibuted by Alison Bowen
