Bolivian government demands Brazilian controlled Amaszonas to pay its multi-million dollars debts
RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – The Minister of Public Works, Services and Housing, Édgar Montaño, explained last week that the debts involve several agencies linked to air traffic control, airport services, and fees, among other things.
According to what was reported by our associated media Aeroin, the portal of the altiplano, La Razón, informed that the official asked Amaszonas not to ‘brag’ about its investment in the country, but to pay what it owes.
It should be recalled that last November, Nella Airlines took control of Amaszonas for a reported US$100 million.
The news was announced in several Paraguayan media after Brazilian lowcost airline Nella’s CEO Mauricio Souza and National Directorate of Civil Aviation head Felix Kanazawa were interviewed by Paraguay’s ‘La Nación’ newspaper.
According to the regulator, Nella will hold a very important asset, namely the prospect of exploiting the LAP (Líneas Aéreas Paraguayas) brand, which carried the country’s name to many areas of the world between the 1960s and 1990s.
