Brazil and Bolivia worked on expanding and [[international trade|diversifying trade]] between the two countries in the last quarter of 2008. The 6th Meeting of the Commission for Monitoring Brazil-Bolivia trade was used to this end. As it stood, at the time Brazil was the main destination for exports from Bolivia, having bought, in 2007, 35.7% of the products that Bolivian companies sell to other countries. They were also the main exporter to Bolivia, sending 24.7% of products imported into Bolivia. As industrialized products represented 94.6% of Brazilian sales up to September of the year, Bolivian sales in the same period were limited largely to [[natural gas]], which accounted for up to 92.7% of the total purchased from the country, or US$1.89 billion. The products with the greatest scope for an increase in trade from Brazil to Bolivia were [[crude oil]], [[insecticide]]s, [[aircraft]], [[vehicle]] [[engine]]s, [[soy]] in [[grain]], [[vegetable oil]]s and [[ironworks]] products, amongst others. From Bolivia to Brazil, products such as [[animal feed]], vegetable oil, crude oil, [[tin]], ores of [[precious metal]]s, [[Gemstone|precious gems]], [[dried fruit|dried]] and [[fruit|fresh fruit]], [[plants]], [[leather]] and [[garments]] were also capable of seeing sales grow.<ref>http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewiStockNews+articleid_2775227.html{{Dead link|date=August 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref>

Bolivia and Chile have had strained relations ever since independence in the early 19th century because of the [[Atacama border dispute]]. Relations soured even more after Bolivia lost its coast to Chile during the [[War of the Pacific]] and became a [[landlocked country]] (Bolivia still claims a corridor to the Pacific Ocean.) Chile and Bolivia have maintained only consular relations since 1978 when territorial negotiations failed.

The election of [[Evo Morales]] strained relations between the two countries. Morales rose to power as the head of a [[trade union]] of [[coca]] growers.  He has campaigned against coca eradication on behalf of the growers, citing the legitimate uses of coca leaves in traditional [[Aymara people|Aymara]] and [[Quechuas|Quechua]] culture.  His policies directly conflict with the eradiction policy of the United States. In 2008 the Bolivian government suspended the operations of the US [[Drug Enforcement Administration]] (DEA) accusing the organisation of being a front for violating the country's [[sovereignty]] and supporting an unsuccessful [[coup d'état]].

In January 2009, Bolivia limited its relations with Israel in the wake of Israeli strikes in Gaza in response to rocket attacks on Israel. Bolivia reportedly promised to take Israel to an international court for alleged war crimes committed against Palestinians in Gaza. On 30 July 2014, Bolivian relations with Israel were further strained. During the [[2014 Israel–Gaza conflict]], Bolivian President Evo Morales declared Israel a "terrorist state" for alleged human rights abuses against Palestinians.<ref>{{cite web |year=2014 |title=Israel Is A 'Terrorist State': Bolivian President |url=http://www.ibtimes.com/israel-terrorist-state-bolivian-president-1644126 |website=International Business Times}}</ref><ref>Baeza, Cecilia.

A diplomatic crisis with Spain in 2005 due to a misunderstanding was quickly resolved by Prime Minister [[José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero]] and Spain became the first European country visited by [[Evo Morales]] on January 4, 2006. However, there remain problems surrounding the [[Oil exploration|exploitation of oil]] and [[gas field]]s in the country by Spanish corporations like [[Repsol]].

Bolivian President [[Evo Morales]] met [[King Juan Carlos]] and held talks with Zapatero during a visit to Spain in September 2009 with the intention of resolving issues concerning the [[Bolivian gas conflict|nationalisation of the Bolivian energy sector]]. The move has the potential to hurt some Spanish companies however relations were said to be "positive" between the Bolivian state and Spanish private sector energy companies. Evo Morales said that Bolivia is ready to accept outside investment in its energy and natural resource industries as long as foreign firms do not act as owners and that Bolivia is "looking for investment, be it from private or state sector. We want partners, not owners of our natural resources."

It was suggested that Bolivia would also negotiate with Spanish companies to produce car parts and lithium batteries in the future.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.aljazeera.com/news/europe/2009/09/2009914223014746611.html|title=Bolivia welcomes foreign investment|website=aljazeera.com}}</ref>
