Bolivia Expels Senior US Diplomat
---------------------------------



The Bolivian government has ordered a senior US diplomat to leave the
country after President Evo Morales accused him of participating in a
“conspiracy” against his government. Morales said Francisco Martinez was
in contact with opposition groups involved in anti-government unrest.
Martinez was the second secretary of the US embassy in La Paz.
