Evo Morales wants to be president of Bolivia. And he advances his purpose no matter what the cost. His immediate obstacle has a first and last name: Luis Arce Catacora, the current president. And the political ‘battle’ will be fought in the recognition that the Supreme Electoral Tribunal (TSE) gives to the congress of the Movement Towards Socialism.
The ‘arcist’ wing prepares the meeting for the next weekend. El Alto will host the congress of the renovators on May 3, 4 and 5. Morales doesn’t hold anything back. “It’s a congress of officials, trucho“, he disqualifies. “Everything they are doing is illegal, they are playing into the hands of the ‘gringos’. “It is a congress to divide, to confuse,” she adds.
Morales clings to a publication from ABI, the state information agency, to denounce a “US plan to leave Evo out of the game and social movements.” A plan in which Luis Arce and David Choquehuanca they would be involved.
With the note in hand, and from his weekly space in Kawsachun Coca, Morales details some aspects of the plan that seeks to bring an ‘outsider’ to power. He ironizes the arrival of Javier Milei to the presidency of Argentina and highlights that “They want a Chapulín Colorado as the savior of Bolivia” to gain control of natural resources
What does Morales ask the TSE?
The division of the MAS-IPSP is notorious. Each of the factions is preparing its own congress and awaits validation from the Supreme Electoral Tribunal. The final endorsement of the TSE will determine who can represent the MAS in the 2025 presidential elections.
“We hope that the TSE acts legally and not politically,” demanded the former president. Morales’ position has been very critical of the decisions made by the judiciary. It’s more, observes “a lot of political maneuvering” to invalidate the meeting of the ‘evista’ wing.
Inform the Puebla Group
Faced with a biased TSE, the former president has chosen to seek international support and denounce the internal division plan of the MAS. “The Puebla Group is already informed of the truth that is happening in Bolivia,” he justifies.
Furthermore, he assures that it was “a mistake not to participate in international events” to counteract the conspiracy plan being prepared in Bolivia. “What Lucho and David are doing is lending themselves to the idea of the United States,” she reaffirms.
Senator Leonardo Loza also participated in the radio program. In a brief intervention, he ratified the idea of a plan to divide the MAS. “There are embassy infiltrators (of the United States) in the government itself,” he says.
Anti-corruption law
Morales does not hesitate to show his repudiation of the current president. “He doesn’t want me to be president because I am radical with corruption,” he explains. Although he avoids referring to Arce as corrupt, he does not spare adjectives for his ministers, among whom “there are drug traffickers, corrupt people and liars.”
He advances one of the pillars of his presidential administration. He will present “a bill against corruption” with sentences of “30 years in prison without pardon” for those convicted, he warns. “It’s time for them to pay,” he adds.
The complaints against the current Government are incessant. He regrets the closure of the satellite television channel that operated from Chapare. “How can they harm a media outlet?” he asks.
He alleges that the Government withdrew the possibility of using the satellite “which is my personal project” to transmit the signal.
