Thatcher and Reagan got in power in 1979 and 1981, respectively, and Pinochet in 73. The whole point of the timing was to do it BEFORE they became part of the world's politics. Nobody's starting WW3 over a governor, an MP and a general from 3 different countries, only two of which are even friendly with each other.
