Chilean Foreign Minister Heraldo Muñoz announced a new, more active communication strategy to counter Bolivia's arguments for access to the sea in the legal battle currently underway in the International Court of Justice in The Hague. Chile will put more emphasis on its historical arguments. Bolivian President Evo Morales charged that Chile had attempted to blackmail, threaten, and pressure other Latin American countries such as Peru, Paraguay, Ecuador, and Venezuela, and Cuba to not back La Paz' demand for maritime access. teleSUR
