Bolivian President to Take Chile Maritime Dispute to Summit of Americas

Bolivian President to Take Chile Maritime Dispute to Summit of Americas

During the upcoming seventh Summit of the Americas in Panama City, Bolivia's President Evo Morales may again discuss his country's claim to regain access to the Pacific Ocean from Chile.

The issue of Bolivia reclaiming access to the sea from Chile may again be discussed by Bolivian President Evo Morales at the seventh Summit of the Americas, due to open in Panama City on April 10, sources said.

According to Bolivia's Senate head Jose Alberto Gonzalez, it would be quite logical for La Paz to seize such an opportunity during the Panama gathering.

"This is another forum where we can again raise our maritime claim; we see it as an absolutely legitimate move," Gonzales was quoted by the La Segunda website as saying on Tuesday.
