CAIRO – 31 October 2023: Bolivia's government announced it had severed diplomatic ties with Israel on Tuesday, accusing the occupying power of committing crimes against humanity in its attacks on the Gaza Strip.
Bolivia "has decided to break diplomatic relations with the Israeli state in repudiation and condemnation of the aggressive and disproportionate Israeli military offensive taking place in the Gaza Strip," RT quoted Deputy Foreign Minister Freddy Mamani as saying at a news briefing.
The Latin American country had previously cut diplomatic ties with Israel in 2009 under the government of leftist President Evo Morales, also in protest of Israel's actions in Gaza. In 2020, the government of right-wing interim President Jeanine Anez reestablished ties.
