Bolivia/World Bank

Trueheart- I honestly do not know where the money that is 'available' originates from as the release is vague and without specifics. However, I ran across this information and you will notice the correlation of the before and after figures ($) mentioned. Petty may be alluding to this without naming names to avoid stepping on anyone's toes or stealing their thunder.
Included are only two excerpts from the link but further reading will make it more plausible. Too much to copy/paste.-TB


Excerpts:

Q. With Bolivia’s new status, will financing increase from $200 million - $500 million?
A. The $500 million that the World Bank has available for Bolivia will be disbursed in the next two years. It is part of the strategy, but it is still not part of the big strategy. Why? Because in this moment we have $500 million.

Q. Currently, how much is Bolivia’s debt with the World Bank?
A. I don’t have the exact figure but more or less $180 million. It’s a small debt.
