Capitalism Has Only Hurt Latin America.

Bolivia's Majority Indian Population Was Always Excluded, Politically Oppressed And Culturally Alienated. Our National Wealth, Our Raw Materials, Was Plundered. Indios Were Once Treated Like Animals Here. In The 1930s And 40s, They Were Sprayed With Ddt To Kill The Vermin On Their Skin And In Their Hair Whenever They Came Into The City.

I Have No Regrets - In Fact, I Am Pleased To Have Expelled The Us Ambassador, The Drug Enforcement Administration (dea) And To Have Closed The Us Military Base In Bolivia. Now, Without A Us Ambassador, There Is Less Conspiracy, And More Political Stability And Social Stability. Without The International Monetary Fund, We Are Better Off Economically.

In Bolivia There Are Catholic, Evangelical, Methodist, Baptist Churches, And So On. In Bolivia There Are Indigenous Religious Beliefs Like The Rite Of Pachamama Mother Earth, Which Shows Us That Mother Earth Is Our Life, We Are Born Out Of The Earth We Live On The Earth And Return To The Earth.

Chile Needs Bolivian Natural Resources And Bolivia Needs Access To The Sea. Under Those Circumstances, It Must Be Possible To Find A Solution In The Interest Of Both Countries.

Sooner Or Later, We Will Have To Recognise That The Earth Has Rights, Too, To Live Without Pollution. What Mankind Must Know Is That Human Beings Cannot Live Without Mother Earth, But The Planet Can Live Without Humans.
