U.S. President Barack Obama should take part in the next Summit of the Americas in Panama, he should work to lift the six-decade embargo against Cuba, and while at it, return the U.S. Naval base in Guantánamo to the Caribbean island nation, Bolivian President Evo Morales said Thursday.

Obama would thus make credible his announced will to restore diplomatic relations between the two countries, Morales told a press conference on the sidelines of the Third Summit of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC), which ended today in Costa Rica.
