AP: The FBI detained the former US ambassador to Bolivia accused of working for Cuba – Rossiyskaya Gazeta

It should be noted that Rocha, 73, was arrested in Miami on December 1.

“One of the sources said that Rocha is accused of promoting the interests of the Cuban government,” the agency writes.

The diplomat represented US interests in Latin America for 25 years. In particular, he worked in Argentina, Cuba and Bolivia.

It should be noted that in Bolivia, Rocha intervened in the 2002 presidential race, warning that the United States would suspend aid to this country if Evo Morales became its president.

The latter eventually became head of Bolivia three years later and expelled Rocha from the country.

The material does not specify exactly when and how the diplomat worked in the interests of Cuba.
