Evo Says U.S. is Sending Hidden Troops to Bolivia

evo2.jpgIn a speech last week, Bolivian President Evo Morales accused the United States of sending military in disguise into the South American country. Morales claimed:

But I also have the right to complain because U.S. soldiers disguised as students and tourists are entering the country.

Morales did not offer any evidence but said he would do so in the near future. Not surprisingly, the U.S. denies the claim(even if it were true, does anyone think the U.S. would admit it?).
Some say that Morales is trying to smokescreen the fact that Venezuelan troops are currently in Bolivia. Whatever the truth is, I’m sure the fact that Evo Morales is saying things like in Quechua like “Qausachun coca (Long live coca!)” and “wanuchun yanquis (die Yankees!” sure is not going to win him any fans in the current (or any) administration.
