Former Bolivian President Evo Morales defined the supply of ammunition from Argentina to the putschist government in November 2019 as a revival of the Condor plan. Morales wrote this on his Twitter on July 9.
“This is another proof of the participation of some right-wing South American governments in the bloody coup d’état that led to massacres, robbing our country. It is irrefutable proof of the new edition of Plan Condor with the exchange of information and repression,” the tweet of the former president of Bolivia reads.
The letter in question was made public the day before by Rogelio Maita, head of the Bolivian Foreign Ministry. In the letter the former commander of the Bolivian Air Force thanked the then Argentine ambassador to Bolivia for the supply of ammunition and tear gas in aerosols and grenades. The letter was made public as part of an investigation into the shootings of demonstrations in support of socialists and then-President Evo Morales when the putschist government led by Janine Añez came to power.
Plan Condor comprised coordinating and exchanging information between the secret services of the dictatorships of Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, Bolivia and Uruguay, to persecute left-wing representatives: intellectuals, journalists, students, members of socialist parties, etc. As part of Plan Condor, those who stood up to military dictatorships were persecuted throughout Latin America and beyond, with kidnappings, torture and assassinations carried out as part of the plan.
The American journalist and researcher Christopher Hitchens believed that the ideologist of the mass repression that crossed state lines was then US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger.
