Bolivia's Controversial Defense Pact with Iran Raises Concerns

The sealing of a defense agreement between Iran and Bolivia has raised concerns in South America, particularly in Argentina, where prosecutors have long alleged Iranian involvement in the 1994 bombing of a Jewish community center. The Argentine government and members of Bolivia's opposition are demanding answers and information about the scope of the agreement. The agreement comes at a time when Iran has supported Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and Argentina's Foreign Ministry has demanded explanations due to concerns about Iran's ties to Hezbollah.
