    Jumped up little irrelevant yesterday,s prick. He has no knowlege about us and as for Chile - well he needs to understand to blame his great grandparents generation who decided to attack and invade Chile, and in both cases - get over ancient history!

    l lost interest in the plonker when he began using that oh so Argentine word “must”.
    l did have some sympathy for Bolivia, in not having a seacoast.
    But not now.
    l fully support Chile.
    Chile was attacked after all.
    Too bad, Bolivia, you shot your bolt, just like Argentina in 1982.
    You lost, just like Argentina & now you are complaining about the outcome.
    lf you can't stand the heat then get out of the kitchen.

    He's confused. The Falklands issue is settled and Bolivia has no right of access to the sea. Never bothered Switzerland.

    and what about (former British) Guyana? Isn't part of this also illegally claimed by his Marxist brothers in Venezuela?

    Is that an aboriginal hat on his head? A wig?

    Does Evy's skull have a pronounced point on top?

    What happened to his collar?

    Did he just surrender to the farq? Or just publically acknowledge his membership?

    Is Evo aware of the success of the boliveruint economies of Chauvistan? Castroville? Brasser?

    The Cow Pat aka Evo Morales, the bovine president of Bolivia© ChrisR 2014 needs his balls kicking to take his mind off this nonsense.

    But, to be fair, what else could he possibly say that would get any interest: NONE.

    @4 GALlamosa
    I wondered that, but it's officially part of France so technically it's not a colony.

    However, it's obvious that if Britain did the same with the Falklands it would make no difference at all; they don't actually care that it's a colony, they just support Argentina.

    So it seems the real difference is that no other country claims Franch Guiana belongs to them, and with no one to make a fuss it just gets forgotten about.

    Anyone remember when Mercopress ran article after article about the coming 8th marvel of the world, the St Helena Airport, and how it would completely change the landscape of the Atlantic? And how the British posters here pounded their chests in pride over the project?

    Anyone seen any Brits pounding their chests lately over it? I was wondering why not, then I found out. Hahahaha.

    It indeed has changed the landscape of the Atlantic, as a brand new monument to one of the worst engineering projects of modern times! jajaja

    Right up there with Berlin's new airport, which is perhaps the worst engineering project of modern times.

    What happened to that famous protestant logic and design... United Kingdom and Germany are now basketcases of construction engineering.

    How does one f--ck up an airport?? Just build a runway and presto. Mendoza is teaching them a lesson as we speak. Local engineers and construction companies rebuilding the entire airport in record time of 3 months: brand new runway, brand new lights, brand new waiting areas, the rest of the building renovated, bigger parking, eventually a rail connection to downtown... The Anglos and Krauts could learn a thing or two from us.

    Tell us about that high flying socialist marvel, Aerolineass, under-maintained planes and over-staffed black hole.

    Always amazes me this one, how he can support the Indian murdering Creole Planter Bastards, efforts to do them same to the British peoples of the S. Atlantic, as they did to his people, is beyond me.

    He must be the Argy equivalent of a Sipayo.

    Bought and paid for with Creole Conquistador gold.

    @12 What on Earth does the airport in St Helena have to do with this thread? Your tiny mind really makes the mind boggle!

    While Bolivia's aspiration to a sea outlet is probably quite reasonable, who the hell does Morales think he is by “demanding” ? he forgets that Chile holds the knife and cheese in their hands, and 'might' be willing to negotiate, provided just compensation is offered in return. None of this Bolivian “we must”, or “will have to”....
    As to Guantanamo, and the Falkland Islands (nothing to solve), these issues have absolutely nothing to do with him, so why does he poke his 'cocaine-nose' in the business of other countries ? If any other country dare suggest or insinuate that Bolivia should do 'this' or do 'that', he, like Maduro, gets on the high-horse and starts blowing hot air. These 'coca' growers and bus drivers should really learn their place in society.
