“Bolivia’s president threatened to close the US embassy as leftist Latin American leaders joined him in blasting Europe and the United States after his plane was rerouted amid suspicions US fugitive Edward Snowden was aboard. President Evo Morales, who has suggested the United States pressured European nations to deny him their airspace, warned he would ‘study, if necessary, closing the US embassy in Bolivia.’ ‘We don’t need a US embassy in Bolivia,’ he said. ‘My hand would not shake to close the US embassy. We have dignity, sovereignty. Without the United States, we are better politically, democratically.'”
