The nuclear war between Brazil and Argentina is one area of V2 that I ignore - the Mexican invasion of the US is something that stretched imagination enough as to Latin and South America. However that doesnt leave them un-nuked at all.
There are a bunch of refineries in both countries that most likely were on the nuke target list most likely - and one of them is in Buenos Aires itself. A couple in Colombia also make the magic over 100,000 bbl/d production number that usually results in a visit by a nuclear warhead in the game as does one in Peru.
Venezuela, of course, doesnt have a hope in heck.
Chile may actually be a good bet as to any UN location in SA - the way the country is structured it has great access to the sea and is easily defensible and thus could be structured and still very much an orderly society.
And it and Paraguay are both countries that had good strong militaries and police forces that could have maintained order (not necessarily over a whole country but most of it) and thus be seen as a place to try to keep the UN going, however tenuously, maybe even just even the disease control portion of its capabilities - i.e. a central place for finding cures for the various plagues that have struck since the war began (like the flu outbreak in Grenada)
