The Movement Towards Socialism (MAS) evista called for an “extended emergency” that will be carried out tomorrow starting at 10:00 in the town of Lauca Ñ, in the tropics of Cochabamba. Although the program of this meeting has a “special agenda”, the meeting will address current issues, such as the ruling of the Plurinational Constitutional Court (TCP) that prevents a new candidacy of Evo Morales and the breakdown of dialogue with the bloc arcist.
Furthermore, the “emergency extension” occurs on the date that Evo Morales resigned from the Presidency of the country: November 10, 2019. The meeting will be at the headquarters of the Six Coca Federations of Chapare and the former president will be at the meeting. Dieter Mendoza, leader of the Bulo Bulo Coca Growers Federation, stated that one of the issues to be addressed will be the ruling issued yesterday by the TCP.
“They are issuing resolutions from magistrates who are legally useless. So, this topic goes without saying so much interest, since we as social sectors We have already decided that comrade Evo Morales will be the MAS candidate for the 2025 general elections”Mendoza stated.
Yesterday afternoon, Constitutional Order 0083/2024-ECA was published, which declares that the term of office of the elected authorities of the Executive, Legislative and Judicial bodies will be “only” for two periods, whether they are continuous or discontinuous, without the possibility of extending to a third term.
This decision – says the Constitutional Order – has the purpose of “avoid in any way the permanence of a representative, in the case of the Legislative and Executive Bodies for more than 10 years in total; in the Judicial, for more than 12 years, and in the Electoral, only one without the possibility of re-election.”
The “emergency extension” will also be developed after yesterday the dialogue mediated by the Ombudsman’s Office between the Government and the evista faction broke downas a result of the acts of violence that occurred in the Plurinational Legislative Assembly that ended with a suspended session and destruction in the legislative chamber.
