Since last year, there have been some very hidden changes in many countries in South America.
The United States has always regarded South America as its own back garden, and naturally began to investigate the changes here at the first time.
Although they focused on Brazil, the largest country in South America, they invested a lot of resources and manpower.
However, with the operation of the United States in South America for more than half a century, they have also found many clues in other South American countries.
Pace quickly took back his sight from the Xiangfeng regional airliner newly received by Bolivia and walked to the airport hall with his suitcase.
Pace walked slowly along the way. He was always vigilant around to prevent possible danger.
After the military coup in Bolivia, the CIA quickly increased the number of spies in Bolivia from only about 20 in the original two offices to nearly 100.
Among them, there are several senior agents like pace, but they didn''t send any warning or useful information before they suddenly disappeared.
It can be seen how dangerous the country is now. Since pace was absorbed and developed into a spy by the CIA, he has gone to the CIA''s overseas training base for several months in the name of tourism for four times in 11 years.
This time he entered from Brazil. In order to avoid possible risks, he dressed up as a tourist and spent more than a week in more than a dozen major cities in Bolivia before arriving at his destination, La Paz.
At the entrance of the airport, I called a taxi. Like taxi drivers all over the world, the owner of the taxi stopped by pace was also a very talkative native of La Paz. He was in his thirties, a little fat and fluent in English.
After learning that pace was Colombian, the taxi driver immediately changed his English to Spanish.
In the era of great navigation, Colombia, like Bolivia, was a colony of Spain, so the official languages of the two countries were Spanish.
Communicating in his mother tongue, the local taxi driver is obviously more enthusiastic than before.
"Sir, are you traveling to La Paz?"
"Well, yes. I originally planned to go to Brazil, but it''s been a mess there recently, and there''s still time for holidays. I''ll come to Bolivia!"
"Brazil, hey, it''s really chaotic over the past two years."
When pace mentioned neighboring Brazil, the smile on the face of the local driver in La Paz suddenly turned into schadenfreude.
As the largest country in South America, Brazil has territorial disputes with many neighboring countries.
Although the two neighbors with the most serious territorial disputes with Brazil are Peru and Bala, Bolivia has not been bullied by this South American bully in the past.
Therefore, in the past two years, the contradiction between the Brazilian government and the domestic drug lords has intensified, and armed conflicts have erupted from time to time, which has seriously affected the security and situation in Brazil.
Although its neighbors denounced the drug lords, the real situation was that they ate melons and watched the play happily one by one. They wished the Brazilian situation could be more chaotic.
Pace chatted with him for a while, felt almost, and pretended to inadvertently lead the topic to his concerns.
"Before I came to La Paz, my colleagues were persuading me that there had just been a military coup here, and now the situation was very chaotic... Before getting off the plane, I was still worried about whether there would be gun battles everywhere in the streets!"
The local driver of La Paz was not angry either. He looked at him in the rearview mirror and said with a smile: "The European and American media are smearing us. Although the former president of Bolivia came to power through election, the new president came to power through military coup. However, the new president has done much better than previous presidents in terms of domestic economic and political stability, or national welfare!"
Like the ordinary Bolivian civilians pace met in more than a dozen previous Bolivian cities, he was very satisfied with the new government and president.
And pace, too, has a rough idea of why.
After the new president of Bolivia came to power through a coup last year, he actively approached Moscow and the north. I don''t know what means he has used to improve his relations with neighboring countries, including Peru, Bara, Chile and Venezuela.
The alliance of South American nations, the most important cooperation organization in South America, once announced sanctions against Bolivia in cooperation with Europe and the United States after the military revolution of Bolivia last year, and temporarily cancelled its membership.
However, at the beginning of this year, the League of South American nations quietly lifted the sanctions against Bolivia and restored its full membership.
In this regard, the new Bolivian government is even better.
Although Bolivia declared its independence in 1825, after independence, capital from Europe and the United States gradually controlled the lifeline of the country''s industry, mines, resources and so on through various means.
After last year''s coup, the new government, regardless of the threat of European and American countries, resolutely recovered its industrial and mining resources controlled by European and American capital, vigorously developed state-owned mining companies and improved its national welfare.
Despite the joint sanctions of Europe and the United States, not many countries in the world continue to import glassy products, glassy sold minerals through various channels and obtained a large number of cheap necessities from Russia and a far east country.
The economy of Bolivia has not declined significantly, but the vast majority of civilians have benefited from the nationalization of industrial and mining resources controlled by the government in Europe and the United States.
Therefore, the situation in Bolivia is still very stable. Various necessities on the market are sufficient and cheap. Compared with Venezuela, which is also sanctioned by Europe and the United States, people naturally make the most favorable choice with their butt.
Pace listened to the taxi driver who was successfully provoked by him and kept introducing him to the changes of Bolivia in the past year.
Although he himself interrupted to ask questions from time to time, his brain turned quickly.
"The military coup in Bolivia was too sudden. There must be foreign forces behind the new president to provide support. This foreign force may come from Moscow or Beidu, but what is their purpose? In order to affect the political situation in South America? But it''s too far from Mosco and North?"
Pace suddenly thought that when the superior entrusted the task to him, he would also use a special instrument that was said to be used to detect whether there were monitoring devices around him.
It is said that once the new anti conflict detector is turned on, as long as there is monitoring equipment within a certain distance around, it will automatically send out vibration warning.
The counter detector, after pace took back his luggage from the airport, has been activated by him and worn close to his body.
However, there seems to be something wrong with it. Since it was activated in the airport, it has continuously sent out vibrations at a fixed frequency that only pace himself can feel.
To say that there are monitoring devices in the airport in La Paz and the taxi he stopped at random, pace obviously doesn''t believe it.
He believed in his own observation and there was no problem with the taxi he chose.
Then there will be only one result!
"Is it broken? What a bad start!"
The task suddenly handed to pace is full of too much uncertainty.
If his superior hadn''t promised pace, he would recommend him to the U.S. headquarters after completing the task, and ensure that he could obtain U.S. citizenship and a bonus of 500000 US dollars.
Otherwise, pace is not going to take the task at all.
More than 20 minutes later, pace came to a five-star hotel near La Paz airport.
After paying the money and thanking the taxi driver, he walked into the hotel with his luggage.
What pace didn''t know was that his front foot had just disappeared.
In the taxi behind him, the fat looking taxi driver blinked red in his eyes.
"Attention of the action team, the new user 1106 of lanwater hotel is suspected to be a CIA spy. He has a special radiation monitor and can capture the electromagnetic spectrum emitted by us. Please catch him as soon as possible!"
After the cold mechanical sound, the taxi turned around at the door of the hotel and drove towards the airport again.
