The president of Bolivia has said he will sue the United States for 'crimes against humanity'.

The comments from Evo Morales come after President Barack Obama allegedly refused to allow Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro to fly over Puerto Rico on his way to China on Thursday.

According to the Huffington Post, Morales specifically cited America's apparent denial of flight privileges to Maduro as reason for its lawsuit.

He said that the United States cannot be allowed to continue its policy of intimidation and blockading international flights.
