Bolivian President Evo Morales announced the expulsion of USAID representatives from the country, which he accused opf meddling in the country’s internal affairs and conspiring against him.
Speaking at a May Day rally in La Paz's Plaza de Armas, Morales stated to crowds,
"No more USAID, which manipulates and uses our leaders".
"The United States does not lack institutions that continue to conspire, and that’s why I am using this gathering to announce that we have decided to expel USAID from Bolivia."
Morales previously expelled both the US ambassador and representatives from the US Drug Enforcement Agency in 2008, citing similar reasons.
