Description
Summary:This article seeks to distinguish some of the historical events that led to the fragmentation of bilateral relations of Chile and Bolivia, which lost access to the sea. It begins with the claims that led to the Pacific War, and the text continues with the attempts of agreement between the respective presidents throughout twentieth century, reaching the present day, exposing ineptitude to provide an agreement that would allow to Bolivia (by Chile) reestablish their sovereignty to the ocean. Resulting in Bolivian demand for their output to the ocean, on April 2013, on the Hague Tribunal.
