Bolivia and Paraguay complete 88-year border agreement
Bolivia and Paraguay have finalized their border demarcation after 88 years of negotiations, specifically through delineating the last segment measuring 3.5 kilometers along the Río Negro. The dispute date back to the Chaco War between 1932 and 1935, which resulted in the deaths of between 80,000 and 100,000 people and caused Bolivia to lose more than half of its current territory. After a peace treaty was signed in 1938, negotiations continued until the demarcation process was finally completed during a three-day meeting, employing high-precision techniques to build trust and promote cooperation between the two countries. As a result, they have become the only two nations in South America with fully defined borders.
