U.S. to slash military aid to Bolivia

-Contributed by Erwin Cifuentes. The United States plans to cut military aid to Bolivia by 96% nearly a month after the election of Evo Morales in Bolivia. The U.S. State Department claims that this cut may be necessary since Bolivia has refused to ratify an agreement avoiding extradition of Americans to the International Criminal Court. (IHT)
