Unredacted version reads -
"I think one that is pretty clear is that over a period of time the Agency worked rather diligently with General Rene Barrientos in Bolivia when he made his move. Dr. Victor Paz Estenssoro, who was President of Bolivia left. So there was no assassination, he took over."
Thanks Anthony.
I gather Rene Barrientos died in 1969. Seems rather strange to me that his involvement needed to remain classified until 2017.
