How do you know that they won't get at least something more meaningful out of this? Spain especially is very dependent on good relations with South-American countries, since Spain has a kind of diplomatic "gateway to South-America" role within the EU.

The Bolivian government unilaterally nationalised subsidiaries of Spanish private companies without any explanation, in exchange for nothing. I really doubt Bolivia will get the apology they believe they deserve at the EU level.
