This was the shortest coup in the history of coups 😂😂, it was all a bad show

[judeangione]

I wonder if this has anything to do with trying to keep foreign investment from getting their hooks into the valuable lithium salt flats.

Quick update for those interested the coup is over and the general is under custody though before being arrested he declared that the president had asked to do something to divert the attention from the economic problems the country is going through

Why a correspondent from Cuba to describe something that is happening 4600 km (2895 miles) away ?

I’m from South America and the realities are extremely different between Cuba and South America

MAGA calls this a peaceful tourist visit.

[cashaeleatemla]

The incident was met with a wave of outrage by other regional leaders, including the Organization of American States, Chilean President Gabriel Boric, the leader of Honduras, and former Bolivian leaders.

Bolivia, a country of 12 million people, has seen intensifying protests in recent months over the economy’s precipitous decline from one of the continent’s fastest-growing two decades ago to one of its most crisis-stricken.
