Political tension in Bolivia: allegations of an attempted coup d'état raise uncertainty and concern

The political tension in Bolivia has reached alarming levels, with reports of an attempted coup that has created an atmosphere of uncertainty and concern in the South American country. General Zúñiga has been one of the key figures in this conflict, demanding that the Armed Forces reclaim the nation, accusing the state of impoverishing the nation and humiliating the Army. These statements have sparked a series of reactions from Bolivian authorities and the international community. In response to the coup attempt, President Arce has urged the military to demobilize and has called on the population to mobilize to prevent any destabilization of the government. Bolivia's Vice President, David Choquehuanca, has openly denounced that a coup is being orchestrated against the democratically elected government, leading to a climate of tension and fear in the country. The international community has also reacted to the situation in Bolivia, with the European Union's foreign policy chief, Josep Borrell, denouncing any attempt to break the constitutional order in the South American country and overthrow legitimately elected governments. The presence of tanks and military personnel near the government headquarters has further raised concerns among the population and authorities. The Minister of Government, Eduardo del Castillo, has confronted General Zúñiga at the scene, urging him to reflect on his actions and to stop any destabilization attempts. Local media reports have indicated that military troops and tanks have tried to enter the presidential palace, increasing tension and fear in the Bolivian capital. President Arce has denounced irregular movements within the army and the closure of Plaza Murillo in La Paz, emphasizing the importance of respecting democracy. Meanwhile, Bolivia's Foreign Minister, Celinda Sosa, has condemned the irregular mobilizations of military units and has called on the international community and the Bolivian population to support the legitimately elected government. Former President Evo Morales has warned of an alleged military mobilization and has called for a national mobilization to defend democracy against the coup that is reportedly being planned. The General Secretariat of the Organization of American States (OAS), through Luis Almagro, has strongly condemned the events in Bolivia and expressed solidarity with President Arce and the entire Bolivian people. Amid this political crisis, the Bolivian population is in a state of uncertainty and fear over the possibility of a breach of the constitutional order and democracy in the country. Authorities and the international community are monitoring the situation closely and have called for respect for legality and the rule of law in Bolivia, in an effort to avoid a violent outcome and ensure democratic stability in the Andean nation.
