Foreign relations of Bolivia

{{Short description|none}}

{{Politics of Bolivia}}

Bolivia traditionally has maintained normal diplomatic relations with all hemispheric states except Chile. Foreign relations are handled by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, headed by the Chancellor of Bolivia, Rogelio Mayta.

Overview

Relations with Chile, strained since Bolivia's defeat in the War of the Pacific (1879–1883) and its loss of the coastal province of Atacama, were severed from 1962 to 1975 in a dispute over the use of the waters of the Lauca River.{{Cite web |date=November 2002|title=Background Note: Bolivia|publisher=U.S. Department of State |url=http://www.state.gov/r/pa/ei/bgn/1958.htm |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030429082937/http://www.state.gov/r/pa/ei/bgn/1958.htm|archive-date=April 29, 2003}} {{PD-notice}} Relations were resumed in 1975 but broken again in 1978 over the inability of the two countries to reach an agreement that solved the Atacama border dispute, which might have granted Bolivia a sovereign access to the sea. In the 1960s, relations with Cuba were broken by the Bolivian dictatorship following Castro's rise to power but resumed under the Paz Estenssoro Administration in 1985, which came to power through democratic elections.

Bolivia pursues a foreign policy with a heavy economic component. Bolivia has become more active in the Organization of American States (OAS), the Rio Group, and in MERCOSUR, with which it signed an association agreement in 1996. Bolivia promotes its policies on sustainable development and the empowerment of indigenous people.

Bolivia is a member of the United Nations and some of its specialized agencies and related programs; OAS; Andean Community; Intelsat; Non-Aligned Movement; International Parliamentary Union; Latin American Integration Association ALADI; World Trade Organization; Rio Treaty; Rio Group; and Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia (URUPABOL, restarted in 1993). As an outgrowth of the 1994 Summit of the Americas, Bolivia hosted a hemispheric summit conference on sustainable development in December 1996. A First Ladies' hemispheric summit was also hosted by Bolivia that same month.

Bolivia is also a member of the International Criminal Court with{{clarify|date=July 2013|reason="with" implies membership of the ICC includes the US bilateral agreement, but this does not appear to be the case; rewordings solicited to clarify this for the reader, maybe two separate sentences?}} a Bilateral Immunity Agreement of protection for the United States-military (as covered under Article 98).{{clarify|date=July 2013|reason=Article 98 pipes to Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court which tells the reader nothing}}

The GeGaLo Index of gains and losses after energy transition ranks Bolivia 128th out of 156 countries.{{Cite journal |last1=Overland |first1=Indra |last2=Bazilian |first2=Morgan |last3=Ilimbek Uulu |first3=Talgat |last4=Vakulchuk |first4=Roman |last5=Westphal |first5=Kirsten |date=2019-11-01 |title=The GeGaLo index: Geopolitical gains and losses after energy transition |journal=Energy Strategy Reviews |language=en |volume=26 |pages=100406 |issn=2211-467X |doi=10.1016/j.esr.2019.100406 |doi-access=free |hdl=11250/2634876 |hdl-access=free}} It is thus among the countries that will lose strength on the international stage if a global transition to renewable energy is carried out and there is no longer demand for Bolivian oil and gas. It is estimated to experience the third largest loss of all Latin American countries (after Colombia and Venezuela).

United Nations involvement

{{Expand section|date=November 2008}}

Bolivia, being one of the founding members of the United Nations,{{Cite web |last=Library |first=Dag Hammarskjöld |title=Research Guides: UN Membership: Founding Members |url=https://research.un.org/en/unmembers/founders |access-date=2022-08-17 |website=research.un.org |language=English}} has frequently been involved with the Intergovernmental Organisation . In November 2008, the Bolivian contingent of UN peacekeeping troops with the United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo was relocated to safety, as at least one other regional state was also reviewing its own mission's security. The country had a detachment of 130 soldiers that was working in Bukavu, but was moved to a location near Goma.{{cite news|url=http://news.bostonherald.com/news/international/africa/view/2008_11_17_Congo_violence_prompts_move_of_Bolivia_s_UN_troops/srvc=home&position=recent|title=Congo violence prompts move of Bolivia's UN troops|date=November 11, 2008|newspaper=Boston Herald|access-date=2009-05-14|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081208102814/http://news.bostonherald.com/news/international/africa/view/2008_11_17_Congo_violence_prompts_move_of_Bolivia_s_UN_troops/srvc%3Dhome%26position%3Drecent|archive-date=December 8, 2008}} Bolivia currently serves as a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, with a two-year term ending in 2018. While a member of the Security Council, Bolivia strongly criticized United States President Donald Trump's decision to move the United States' Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, and called for a public meeting of the Security Council to respond to the decision.{{cite news|url=https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-usa-trump-israel-un/bolivia-to-seek-u-n-security-council-meeting-on-jerusalem-status-idUKKBN1E0257|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171206173323/https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-usa-trump-israel-un/bolivia-to-seek-u-n-security-council-meeting-on-jerusalem-status-idUKKBN1E0257|url-status=dead|archive-date=December 6, 2017|title=Bolivia to seek U.N.

During the United Nations General Assembly Resolution ES-11/1, on March 2, 2022, Bolivia voted to abstain, along with 34 other nations.

International disputes

Bolivia has wanted a sovereign corridor to the South Pacific Ocean since the Atacama area was lost to Chile in 1884; dispute with Chile over Rio Lauca water rights.{{Cite web|title=Bolivia|website=The World Factbook |publisher=Central Intelligence Agency |url=http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/bl.html |archive-date=November 19, 2000|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20001119222300/http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/bl.html}} {{PD-notice}}

Since the accession of Carlos Mesa to the Presidency, Bolivia has pressed its demands for a corridor to the Pacific. In March 2004, Mesa announced that the government would stage a series of public rallies across the country and in Bolivian embassies abroad in remembrance of those who died in the War of the Pacific, and to call for Chile to grant Bolivia a seacoast. Mesa made this demand a cornerstone of his administration's policy.

President Evo Morales maintained a hard position on this issue of which the symbolic importance is underlined by the fact that Bolivia also still has a navy, despite it not currently having access to the sea. In October 2018, the ICJ (International Court of Justice), ruled against Bolivia in a case that would determine whether or not Bolivia could force Chile to negotiate access to the sea. However, the ICJ did state that cooperation was desirable if workable solutions are to be found.

Illicit drugs

Bolivia is the world's third-largest cultivator of coca (after Peru and Colombia) with an estimated {{Convert|218|km2}} under cultivation in 1999, a 45% decrease in overall cultivation of coca from 1998 levels; intermediate coca products and cocaine exported to or through Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, and Chile to the United States and other international drug markets; alternative crop program aims to reduce illicit coca cultivation.

See Bolivia–Brazil relations

Brazil and Bolivia worked on expanding and diversifying trade between the two countries in the last quarter of 2008. The 6th Meeting of the Commission for Monitoring Brazil-Bolivia trade was used to this end. As it stood, at the time Brazil was the main destination for exports from Bolivia, having bought, in 2007, 35.7% of the products that Bolivian companies sell to other countries. They were also the main exporter to Bolivia, sending 24.7% of products imported into Bolivia. As industrialized products represented 94.6% of Brazilian sales up to September of the year, Bolivian sales in the same period were limited largely to natural gas, which accounted for up to 92.7% of the total purchased from the country, or US$1.89 billion. The products with the greatest scope for an increase in trade from Brazil to Bolivia were crude oil, insecticides, aircraft, vehicle engines, soy in grain, vegetable oils and ironworks products, amongst others. From Bolivia to Brazil, products such as animal feed, vegetable oil, crude oil, tin, ores of precious metals, precious gems, dried and fresh fruit, plants, leather and garments were also capable of seeing sales grow.http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewiStockNews+articleid_2775227.html{{Dead link|date=August 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}

Bolivia and Chile have had strained relations ever since independence in the early 19th century because of the Atacama border dispute. Relations soured even more after Bolivia lost its coast to Chile during the War of the Pacific and became a landlocked country (Bolivia still claims a corridor to the Pacific Ocean.) Chile and Bolivia have maintained only consular relations since 1978 when territorial negotiations failed.

Bolivia traditionally has had strong ties to the United States.{{Cite web|date=January 2006|title=Country Profile: Bolivia |url=https://www.loc.gov/rr/frd/cs/profiles/Bolivia.pdf |access-date=November 5, 2020|publisher=Federal Research Division, Library of Congress}} {{PD-notice}} Economically, the United States has been a long-standing consumer of Bolivian exports and a partner in development projects. In 1991 the United States forgave more than US$350 million owed by Bolivia to the U.S. Agency for International Development and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Presently, the United States leads an international contingent pressuring Bolivia to curb its illegal drug trade.

The election of Evo Morales strained relations between the two countries. Morales rose to power as the head of a trade union of coca growers. He has campaigned against coca eradication on behalf of the growers, citing the legitimate uses of coca leaves in traditional Aymara and Quechua culture. His policies directly conflict with the eradiction policy of the United States. In 2008 the Bolivian government suspended the operations of the US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) accusing the organisation of being a front for violating the country's sovereignty and supporting an unsuccessful coup d'état. Bolivia's government also expelled the US ambassador.{{cite news| url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7704528.stm| work=BBC News| title=Bolivia halts US anti-drugs work| date=2008-11-01| access-date=2010-05-02}} In 2008 Gustavo Guzmán, the Bolivian ambassador to Washington said "The U.S. embassy is historically used to calling the shots in Bolivia, violating our sovereignty, treating us like a banana republic", and Evo Morales, then Bolivian president said "Where there is a US ambassador, there is a coup".{{Cite web |url=http://www.noticias24.com/actualidad/noticia/287399/evo-moarales-donde-hay-un-embajador-de-estados-unidos-hay-golpe-de-estado/ |title=Evo Morales: "Donde hay un Embajador de Estados Unidos, hay golpe de Estado" en Noticias24.com |access-date=2011-12-13 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110808113301/http://www.noticias24.com/actualidad/noticia/287399/evo-moarales-donde-hay-un-embajador-de-estados-unidos-hay-golpe-de-estado/ |archive-date=2011-08-08 |url-status=dead }}

In January 2009, Bolivia limited its relations with Israel in the wake of Israeli strikes in Gaza in response to rocket attacks on Israel. Bolivia reportedly promised to take Israel to an international court for alleged war crimes committed against Palestinians in Gaza. On 30 July 2014, Bolivian relations with Israel were further strained. During the 2014 Israel–Gaza conflict, Bolivian President Evo Morales declared Israel a "terrorist state" for alleged human rights abuses against Palestinians.{{cite web |year=2014 |title=Israel Is A 'Terrorist State': Bolivian President |url=http://www.ibtimes.com/israel-terrorist-state-bolivian-president-1644126 |website=International Business Times}}Baeza, Cecilia.

With Bolivia the focus on relations with Russia is mainly economic, as opposed to political and strategic, as an agreement to invest in Bolivia's natural gas fields shows. It is seen to "help Latin America...[as it] expands Latin America's economic opportunities, diversifies its relationships...that's healthy."[http://www.voanews.com/english/2008-11-14-voa17.cfm Voice of America]{{dead link|date=April 2025|bot=medic}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}

A diplomatic crisis with Spain in 2005 due to a misunderstanding was quickly resolved by Prime Minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero and Spain became the first European country visited by Evo Morales on January 4, 2006. However, there remain problems surrounding the exploitation of oil and gas fields in the country by Spanish corporations like Repsol.

Bolivian President Evo Morales met King Juan Carlos and held talks with Zapatero during a visit to Spain in September 2009 with the intention of resolving issues concerning the nationalisation of the Bolivian energy sector. The move has the potential to hurt some Spanish companies however relations were said to be "positive" between the Bolivian state and Spanish private sector energy companies. Evo Morales said that Bolivia is ready to accept outside investment in its energy and natural resource industries as long as foreign firms do not act as owners and that Bolivia is "looking for investment, be it from private or state sector. We want partners, not owners of our natural resources."

It was suggested that Bolivia would also negotiate with Spanish companies to produce car parts and lithium batteries in the future.{{Cite web|url=https://www.aljazeera.com/news/europe/2009/09/2009914223014746611.html|title=Bolivia welcomes foreign investment|website=aljazeera.com}}
