In Bolivia, President Evo Morales has announced he will end Bolivian military training at the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation, formerly known as the School of the Americas. Located at Fort Benning, Georgia, the school has a long history of training repressive U.S.-backed military forces in Latin America. Bolivia is the fifth Latin American country to withdraw from training there, following Costa Rica, Argentina, Uruguay and Venezuela.
