Philin Vladimir 20.07.2006

In reality interests of the American imperialism in Boliviaare not so badly going on. Notwithstanding a change of power and to the great degree thanks to it, taking into account former activity of a number of present leaders of the country in the field of coca leaves growing, this poorest state of South America keeps the second place in the world in illegal export of cocaine in the USA with confidence being inferior only to Columbia. Meanwhile, as it is well known to the specialists, the lion’s share of smuggling operations with the drugs in the western hemisphere has been long ago and safely "fronted" by the American CIA.

Michael Deljagin predicts serious crisis in the days of the summit. He has shared his fears with a reporter of FORUM.msk: "... the most logical moment of making a blow is just right after carrying out of a bilateral meeting - in the early morning of the first day of summit.
