“Latin American leaders slammed European governments on Wednesday for diverting Bolivian President Evo Morales’ plane on rumors it was carrying a wanted former U.S. spy agency contractor, and announced an emergency summit in a new diplomatic twist to the Edward Snowden saga. Heads of state in the 12-nation South American bloc Unasur denounced the ‘unfriendly and unjustifiable acts.’ ‘Latin America demands an explanation,’ tweeted Ecuadorean leader Rafael Correa. ‘If what happened to Evo does not merit a Unasur summit, I don’t know what does.’ The Bolivian government said it had filed a formal complaint with the United Nations.”
