ALBA to create military school to train soldiers in the region
The Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America (ALBA) will create a school of defense in the eastern region of Santa Cruz, to provide military training not only to soldiers but also to civilians, said Bolivian Defense Minister Rubén Saavedra.

"The formal establishment of the School of Defense will be the responsibility of the ALBA presidents. We consider that it is a very important advance," Saavedra said. The minister did not provide details about the opening date, AP reported.

"The goal is to train not only military personnel but also civilians who are interested in security and defense issues. The coordination is being established with all the ALBA countries," he said.
