Eduardo Rodríguez Larreta

Eduardo Rodriguez Larreta (born 11 December 1888; died 15 August 1973) was a Uruguayan foreign minister in the 1940s who formulated what is sometimes called the Larreta doctrine, which said nations of the Americas could "consider multilateral action against any member state violating elementary human rights." The "doctrine" was controversial, with Argentine Foreign Minister es:Juan Isaac Cooke and others, criticizing it as going against non-interventionism. Rodriguez Larreta also served as a founding editor of El País and received the Maria Moors Cabot prize in 1949.
