In a press conference, Larach also carried out an evaluation of the first day of indefinite unemploymentcongratulating the population of Santa Cruz for assuming the pressure measure “with a lot of discipline” and having resisted “the violence generated by those related to MAS.”
He insisted that ambulances, health personnel, people with medical problems, and public service vehicles be allowed to pass through the blockade points.
