The Venezuelan Embassy to Bolivia Tuesday "forcefully" rejected the Bolivian opposition's claims that it was involved in a bomb attack against an anti-Evo Morales television channel last June 21.

In a communiqué published by the Bolivian press, the Venezuelan Embassy, headed by Ambassador Julio Montes, branded the accusation as "malicious" and "groundless."

"These claims come as part of a systematic international smear campaign encouraged by the US administration against our revolution and the people of the Americas that have chosen the way of unity and sovereignty," the statement reads, as quoted by Efe.

Former Bolivian President Jorge Quiroga, the leader of opposition Podemos party, which holds a majority in the Bolivian Senate, claimed the Venezuelan Embassy to Bolivia rented the car from which explosives were thrown at Unitel television channel and provided the logistics and the explosives used in the attack.

The attack took place early last June 21 in the border town of Yacuiba, south Bolivia, ahead of a vote on the autonomy of Tarija region.

The Venezuelan Embassy Tuesday stressed it only supports the implementation of the agreements entered into under the Bolivarian Alternative for the Americas (ALBA) and the Peoples' Free Trade Agreement (TCP).

Venezuela's financial aid to Bolivia, as Morales himself disclosed recently, exceeds USD 100 million in several programs.

"No malicious anti-Latin America, anti-Venezuela campaign, trick or tall story by the sectors that are fighting against the unity of the peoples of the Americas" will ever deter Venezuela from accompanying Bolivia "in its path toward ultimate liberation."
