Evo Morales blasts Trump's calls for regime change in Latin America
Evo Morales address the United Nations yesterday

BOLIVIAN President Evo Morales clashed with his United States counterpart Donald Trump at the United Nations security council (UNSC) in New York this week, accusing the belligerent billionaire of pushing for regime change in Latin America.

He blasted the Trump administration, telling leaders gathered at the 15-member UNSC that the US is not interested in peace or democracy but continually threatens democratic countries with military intervention. 

“In recent months, the United States has demonstrated its contempt for international law and multilateralism. It constantly invades countries and launches missiles. The US is not interested in justice or democracy,” Mr Morales charged.
