Evo Morales Blames Bolivian President Luis Arce for Apparent Assassination Attempt

HeadlineOct 28, 2024

Former Bolivian President Evo Morales blamed sitting President Luis Arce after his vehicle came under fire in what Morales said was an attempted assassination Sunday. This comes amid mounting tensions between Arce and Morales; both men belong to the ruling MAS party and have announced plans to represent the party in Bolivia’s 2025 presidential election. Arce has accused Morales of “destabilizing” the country by calling for road blockades and protests. Morales has said he is being persecuted by Arce’s government, including what he claims are false accusations of statutory rape.
