TODAY, at the request of the Spanish far-right Vox members of the European Parliament, the European Union will hear a discussion on the subject of human rights in the Plurinational State of Bolivia.
They are putting the case of the Bolivian far right which claims that “democracy is under threat” and whose main aim is to undermine the newly, legitimately elected government of Luis Arce and David Choquehuanca and whitewash the crimes against humanity committed during Jeanine Anez’s dictatorship.
The MAS-IPSP government is in a half-hearted way pursuing Anez for her part in the November 2019 US/EU/OAS/British coup that overthrew another lawfully elected government under the first indigenous president, Evo Morales. We want to emphasise, there was a coup in Bolivia.
