In order to get imports -- which are paid in foreign, "hard" currency such as US dollars or European euros -- Latin American countries need to export resources or other goods to attain such foreign currency. For example, to pay for motor vehicles, Chile exports raw copper; to pay for computers, Brazil exports soybeans, and do on.
