  • 9 years ago
Arriving in Bolivia on the second-leg of his three-country tour, Pope Francis was received by President Evo Morales. The Pontiff praised the Bolivian government's economic and social policies aimed at wealth distribution. He also called for a dialogue to resolve Bolivia's claim against Chile for access to the sea. More than 1 million Bolivians lined the streets of La Paz to welcome the Pope, who after 4 hours in the capital traveled on to Santa Cruz. teleSUR
