President Evo Morales has announced that Moscow plans to build a "maintenance center for Russian planes that fly in South America" in Bolivia.
On Saturday, Morales said the center would be set up at an airport in Chimore, a coca-producing region of the Andean nation that he said previously served as a base for US anti-narcotics operations.
It was not clear if the facility would be used for Russian military aircraft.
Venezuela has been the region's most notable buyer of Russian aircraft in recent years, purchasing a string of MiG fighters and Mi-28 helicopters.
