TEHRAN (Dispatches) -- Iran on Tuesday condemned U.S. meddling in Bolivia as well as coup-style actions against the South American country’s legitimate president, who was recently forced to resign and leave the homeland under pressure from the army amid violent protests.
"Any forceful change of governments outside legal frameworks, particularly by foreign interference, is condemned and unacceptable,” Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Abbas Mousavi said day. Iran, he said, believes any change "should reflect the people’s will and come about at ballot boxes within the framework of law.”
