Nonetheless, in the midst of this crisis, complex negotiations enabled the unanimous approval of the Nov. 24, 2019, Exceptional and Transitory Law for holding general elections. The law decreed the cancellation of the October 2019 elections and established deadlines for a new Tribunal Supremo Electoral (TSE) to organize a new electoral process. From the time the TSE was constituted as a result of wide political consensus, the task of the election administration was particularly challenging: to organize elections in a short timeframe with largely new personnel and a significant part of its infrastructure demolished — all in the context of extreme political polarization.

  • Bolivia Faces New Polls in Shadow of Fraud Row
    Bolivia Faces New Polls in Shadow of Fraud Row Crisis Group Latin America Briefing N°43 Bogotá/New York/Brussels, 31 July 2020 What’s new? Bolivia is set to hold a presidential election on 18 October. Besides the challenge of holding the poll amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the legacy of 2019’s disputed poll, which provoked violent unrest and led former President Evo Morales to flee the country, means that both sides mistrust the election system. Why does it matter? In late 2019, an agreement to hold new polls under reformed election authorities curbed unrest. Still, the 2019 vote remains controversial, as does the role of Organization of American States observers, whose statements shaped perceptions of rigging. Amid deep social and political polarisation, another flawed poll could trigger further instability. What should be done? The EU, UN, donor countries, Bolivia’s neighbours and international NGOs should provide technical and political support to the electoral authorities, deploy as robust monitoring missions as is feasible, and press the main political forces to commit publicly to accept results or pursue grievances in the courts, not by protesting. I. Overview On 18 October 2020, a year after a troubled election triggered fraud allegations and deadly unrest culminating in President Evo Morales’ flight from the country, Bolivians are due to return to the polls. Standing in the way of a fair and undisputed vote is the practical hurdle of the COVID-19 pandemic, now raging across much of South Amer- ica and which has already forced election delays. Yet a more fundamental obstacle to ending the bitter aftermath of Morales’ resignation are Bolivia’s political divisions, which have been further embittered by arguments over the 2019 vote and the elec- tion system’s legitimacy more broadly.

El postulante del partido izquierdista que gobernó el país sudamericano durante 14 años y fue desalojado del poder en la protesta poselectoral de noviembre de 2019 se impuso con más del 50% de los votos al ex presidente y periodista Carlos Mesa, de la coalición Comunidad Ciudadana, y al empresario conservador Luis Fernando Camacho, de la coalición Creemos. Arce tomará posesión de la jefatura del Estado Plurinacional de Bolivia en noviembre, con un mandato quinquenal y reemplazando a la presidenta interina, y adversaria política, en el último año, Jeanine Áñez. El dirigente electo, cuya candidatura fue seleccionada por el masismo como alternativa a la del procesado en el exilio Morales, presenta su victoria como un hito para "recuperar la democracia" en Bolivia y anuncia un "Gobierno de unidad" comprometido con "la estabilidad y la paz social". Su programa, centrado en los aspectos sociales y económicos, encara como más inmediato desafío la crisis de la COVID-19, que forzó el retraso de una repetición electoral inicialmente prevista para mayo.

  • Bolivia Coup Led by Christian Fascist Paramilitary Leader and Millionaire – with Foreign Support
    Bolivia Coup Led by Christian Fascist Paramilitary Leader and Millionaire – with Foreign Support By Max Blumenthal and Ben Norton Region: Latin America & Caribbean, USA Global Research, November 13, 2019 Theme: Intelligence, US NATO War Agenda The Grayzone 11 November 2019 Bolivian coup leader Luis Fernando Camacho is a far-right multi-millionaire who arose from fascist movements in the Santa Cruz region, where the US has encouraged separatism. He has courted support from Colombia, Brazil, and the Venezuelan opposition. *** When Luis Fernando Camacho stormed into Bolivia’s abandoned presidential palace in the hours after President Evo Morales’s sudden November 10 resignation, he revealed to the world a side of the country that stood at stark odds with the plurinational spirit its deposed socialist and Indigenous leader had put forward. With a Bible in one hand and a national flag in the other, Camacho bowed his head in prayer above the presidential seal, fulfilling his vow to purge his country’s Native heritage from government and “return God to the burned palace.” “Pachamama will never return to the palace,” he said, referring to the Andean Mother Earth spirit. “Bolivia belongs to Christ.” Far-right Bolivian opposition leader Luis Fernando Camacho in Bolivia’s presidential palace with a Bible, after the coup | 1 Bolivia’s extreme right-wing opposition had overthrown leftist President Evo Morales that day, following demands by the country’s military leadership that he step down. Virtually unknown outside his country, where he had never won a democratic election, Camacho stepped into the void. He is a powerful multi-millionaire named in the Panama Papers, and an ultra-conservative Christian fundamentalist groomed by a fascist paramilitary notorious for its racist violence, with a base in Bolivia’s wealthy separatist region of Santa Cruz.

  • Bolivia – a Color Revolution – Or a New Surge for Latin American Independence?
    Bolivia – A Color Revolution – or a New Surge for Latin American Independence? By Peter Koenig Region: Latin America & Caribbean Global Research, November 17, 2019 Theme: Police State & Civil Rights, US NATO War Agenda Like Túpac Katari, indigenous Aymara leader more than 200 years ago, confronting the Spaniards, Evo Morales was betrayed and ‘dismembered’ by his own people, recruited and paid by the agents of the most destructive, nefarious and murderous dark elite that governs and has governed for over two hundred years our planet, the United States of America. With their worthless fiat-Ponzi-pyramid money, the made-out-of-thin-air US dollar, they create poverty throughout the globe, then buy off the weak and poor to plot against the very leaders that have worked for years to improve their social conditions. It’s become a classic. It’s being called a Color Revolution, and it’s been taking place on all Continents. The list of victim-countries includes, but is not exhaustive – Colombia, Honduras, Argentina, Paraguay, Ecuador, Chile, Brazil, in some ways also Uruguay (the current left- leaning government is powerless and has to remain so, otherwise it will be “changed”… that’s the name of the game) – and now also Bolivia. – Then there are Georgia, Ukraine, Iraq, South Sudan, Libya, Afghanistan, Indonesia; and the lawless rulers of the universe are attempting to “regime change” North Korea, Syria, Iran, Venezuela, Cuba, Nicaragua – and on a larger scale China and Russia (I just returned from China – where the Government and people are fully aware what Washington’s intentions are behind every move they make).

Imprisoned with her are former Justice Minister Alvaro Coimbre and Energy Minister Rodrigo Guzmán. The sentence expected by the Minister of Justice is 30 years in prison because, in addition to these accusations about the organisation of the coup, there is also a demand for justice for the victims of the Senkata and Sacaba massacres perpetrated by the forces of repression with impunity in the first weeks of the coup. Contestation within the MAS This judicial firmness was accompanied by a political reorientation defined by the new president as "moderate socialism". The main social measure implemented as soon as he took office was the announcement of the new hunger voucher, aimed at the four million poorest people in the country. At the same time, in the context of the economic crisis aggravated by the Covid-19 pandemic, there will be no pause in the exploitation of the subsoil.

    Opinion Paper 54/2021 07/05/2021 Mayumi Yasunaga Kumano* The Bolivian crescent as an instability factor Visit Web Receive Newsletter The Bolivian crescent as an instability factor Abstract: The political crises that Bolivia has experienced since the beginning of the 21st century stem from the existence within the country of two opposing projects whose contradictions manifest themselves on the political, economic and social levels. The stability of the country from 2009 to 2019 hid a deep rift between two blocs that would end up colliding in 2019. The power struggle between these projects has plunged Bolivia into political chaos on two occasions, once during 2008 and the most recent, in 2019.
