Bolivia is not planning to break its diplomatic ties with Peru despite the difficult moment both countries are facing, said the Bolivian vice Chancellor, Hugo Fernández.

“We think that our diplomatic ties are going through a difficult moment, but are at not at risk, and we are not planning to break them,” he emphasized.

Fernandez pointed out at both countries' historic ties and assured that there are more reasons for union than for separation.

According to Bolivian's state news agency, ABI, Fernandez thinks that some media are “creating soap operas” regarding this matter, so he invoked them to “not to complicate even more the situation.”

Peru had called his ambassador back to Lima right after Bolivian President Evo Morales said publicly that the violent repression of Bagua clashes was a “genocide.”

I'm greatly relieved. Peru can sleep now knowing that Evo will still talk with Alan.

The links london, the best selling sterling silver jewelry, always sells very fast once it is released because it is super-popular among ladies and thoughtful men. To lady, love yourself; treat yourself with the yearning links. To men, love her; give her what she wants---Links of London charms. Hurry up; otherwise, the popular ones will be out of stock.

yes JB I agree!!this way Alan is able to see another south american leader with integrity who is a champion of all his people including the ''first nation'' indigionous population. Murdering your countrymen when you have been caught selling the country's assets is not a very ethical approach. I hope Alan learns a lesson before once again departing to Paris with stolen Millions
