Bolivia and the U.S.

The Democracy Center does good work in Bolivia. I keep up with founder Jim Shultz's blog. I thought he had interesting comments about the continued ragged relations between Bolivia and the United States.

It's worth a read. At least the United States and Venezuela have now restored their ambassadors.

Clearly, the Obama administration is displeased with Bolivia. The administration extended the duty-free import benefits for Ecuador but not Bolivia.

Bolivia was the poorest country in South America thanks to the exploitation of their natural resources by US. Morales intend to keep US out of its business and help the poor - I call that "humanitarian" as opposed to imperialism.
