Bolivia Decries US
Intelligence Report
LA PAZ - Authorities of Bolivia's
legislative and executive powers rejected on
Friday a US intelligence report mentioning
the South American nation as one of the
countries threatening stability in Latin
America.
According to ruling Movement towards
Socialism (MAS) Senator Isaac Avalos, this
assertion is yet another act of interference
in Bolivia's internal affairs.
Avalos described the report as far from
reality, as other nations that allegedly
threaten the region are more supportive than
any other ever, in a clear reference to
Cuba, Venezuela, Ecuador and Nicaragua.
New Deputy Interior Minister Gustavo Torrico
said that in 2009, Bolivia registered
significant achievements in the war against
drug trafficking, without the presence of US
elite units or advisors, who used to be
devoted to plot against the Executive.
On Thursday, President Evo Morales accused
the Barack Obama administration of changing
policies in order to regain power in some
countries in Latin America.
"It is no longer by means of coups, but they
rather seek internal confrontation, trying
to weaken any process of comprehensive
transformation in Latin America," stressed
Morales. |
