Territorial Dispute: Chile
and Peru rebuff Bolivia's reactivated claim to restore the Atacama corridor,
ceded to Chile in 1884, but Chile offers instead unrestricted but not sovereign
maritime access through Chile for Bolivian natural gas and other commodities;
an accord placed the long-disputed Isla Suárez/Ilha de Guajará-Mirim,
a fluvial island on the Río Mamoré, under Bolivian administration
in 1958, but sovereignty remains in dispute.
