Then expect a visit from the foreign ministry. How much harder would the Uboat war have been with allied air bases in the Azores, or South America earlier in the War? Uboat attacks on Brazilian shipping in national waters forced Brazil to declare war on Germany (1943?). Granted Brazilian freighters loaded to the gunnels with Corned Beef and hardwoods would have been prime targets anyway.
