2. Quick and dirty translation of first two paragraphs
I checked the BBC, and while this story is big news in Bolivia, it seems to have dropped out of the anglo press. Here is a quick and dirty transalation of first two paragraphs of OP:

Los Tiempos y La Prensa.- El Departamento de Estado de Estados Unidos convocó al Ministro Consejero de la Embajada de ese país en Bolivia para que dé un informe sobre las insinuaciones del presidente Evo Morales contra el Gobierno norteamericano por los dos atentados dinamiteros ocurridos la noche del martes y la madrugada del miércoles, pasados en La Paz, según confirmaron ayer fuentes del Gobierno de Estados Unidos.

Sería la primera vez, en los últimos 20 años, que un Ministro Consejero de Bolivia es convocado por su gobierno para ofrecer una explicación.


My humble translation:

The Times and The Press.- The US State Department has recalled their Charge d'Affairs in Bolivia for consultations about the allegations of President Evo Morales against the American government about the attempted bombings that took place in La Paz (Bolivia's capital) Tuesday night and on the early morning of Wednesday, according to confirmed sources in the US government.

This is the first time in the last 20 years that a diplomatic envoy in Bolivia is recalled by his government for consultations.
