The ministry also expressed optimism that Obama might heed South American initiatives toward greater democracy and begin chipping away at the U.S. policies of domination worldwide.
"The historic election of an afro-descendent to the head of the most powerful nation in the world is the symptom that the epochal change that South America has initiated could be knocking on the door of the United States," the ministry statement read.
