Reply #11: Isn't the Prefect of Santa Cruz directly named as a co-conspirator [View All]

in the last plot against Morales and the Bolivian government? This is the most direct link I can find:


In one document dated November 30, 2007, just months before the separatist referendums held in Santa Cruz, Beni, Pando and Tarija during early 2008, the Democratic Initiatives Program of OTI/USAID worked closely with the Prefects (regional governments) to "develop sub-national, de-concentrated" models of government. In those regions, those promoting such "sub-national, de-concentrated" models, or separatism, have made clear that their objective is to achieve a political, economic and territorial division from the national government of Bolivia, so they can manage and benefit solely from the rich resources in their regions.
. . .

In this case, it would be Ruben Costas.
