Canceling the 1972 agreement which allowed Israelis to travel freely to Bolivia “means, in other words, we are declaring (Israel) a terrorist state,” the country’s President Evo Morales announced.
Morales explained that Operation Protective edge clearly shows that “Israel is not a guarantor of the principles of respect for life and the elementary precepts of rights that govern the peaceful and harmonious coexistence of our international community.”
It must be noted that other South American countries, including Brazil, Chile, Ecuador and Peru, have recalled their ambassadors from Israel in protest over mass killings of children and women in Gaza.
