Bolivia Fuel Crisis: Over 80 Tankers Blocked, Supply at Risk
Cochabamba, Bolivia – A significant disruption to Bolivia's fuel supply is underway as over 80 fuel tankers remain stranded at various roadblocks across the country. This situation, according to Armin Dorgathen, president of YPFB (Bolivian state oil company), is causing serious concerns about fuel shortages. "This is significantly impacting fuel distribution," Dorgathen stated in an interview shown in the video, "and we are working to resolve this situation as quickly as possible."
The roadblocks, organized by various groups, have effectively halted the transportation of fuel, leading to concerns about potential price hikes and disruptions to essential services. The video shows footage of the blocked tankers, many clearly marked with warnings about the dangerous nature of their cargo.
YPFB is actively seeking to resolve the issue, appealing to the protesters for empathy and understanding, highlighting the safety risks associated with the stalled fuel tankers. The situation underscores the vulnerability of Bolivia's fuel supply chain and the potential for widespread impact from civil unrest.
