Bolivia Vice President Says U.S. Drug Agents Not Welcome Back

[Unbreakable]

Bolivia's vice president says U.S. drug agents will not be returning to his country despite the newly announced normalization of diplomatic relations.

Vice President Alvaro Garcia says the Drug Enforcement Administration "was a mechanism of political blackmail" and is not welcome back.

Bolivia and Washington signed an agreement Monday to restore full diplomatic ties three years after the Andean nation's leftist government expelled the U.S. ambassador and the DEA for allegedly inciting the opposition.

Yay, somebody standing up to the big bully that the DEA is.

It is good, but Bolivia standing up to the US is like a flea standing up to the dog.
No offense meant to Bolivia, but the US is the most powerful country in the world now, for good or bad.

Gotta love Evo Morales and his administration (and not just for drug policy, though that's a big part of it for me of course). Always nice to see Latin America not kowtow to US interests and narco-colonial policy.
