Bolivia expelled Colombia's ambassador, Elizabeth García, on Wednesday after accusing Colombian President Gustavo Petro of interfering in its internal affairs with comments about the country's political crisis and the legal situation of former President Evo Morales.
Bolivia's Foreign Ministry said García had been declared persona non grata and ordered to end her diplomatic functions in the country. The ministry said the decision was taken "in exercise of its sovereign powers" and in accordance with international law and the 1961 Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations.
