Brazil is not the only country affected by the wildfires in the Amazon. The president of neighbouring Bolivia, Evo Morales, has said he is ready to accept international help to cope with a growing number of forest fires which are out of control. Until now, the left wing leader has been reluctant to agree to offers of assistance from the United States and some Latin American countries. Much of Santa Cruz province, a key agricultural area where more than a quarter of the population lives, is now in flames. Monica Machicao, a journalist from the Reuters news agency in Bolivia, spoke to ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Newsday. (Picture: A firefighter works during a wildfire in eastern Bolivia Credit: STR/AFP/Getty Images)
