Authorities in the Argentine province of Salta called for tenders to build a “perimeter fence” 200 meters long and 2.5 meters high on the border with Bolivia along the Bermejo River between the Aguas Blancas bus terminal and the immigration checkpoint, in a move to keep irregular aliens and drugs from entering the country. Bolivia’s Foreign Ministry claimed that border issues should be handled between governments through “bilateral dialogue” and insisted that “any unilateral measure may affect good neighborliness and peaceful coexistence between brotherly peoples.”
