Bolivian Protesters Demand Evo Morales' Candidacy Amid Economic Crisis

Protesters in Bolivia demand Evo Morales's candidacy approval amid economic hardship. On June 6th, 2025, supporters of former Bolivian President Evo Morales rallied outside the Departmental Electoral Tribunal (TED) in Cochabamba, Bolivia. They demanded the authorities approve Morales's candidacy for upcoming elections. The demonstration highlighted growing public discontent over the country's economic situation. One protester stated, "The government doesn't provide solutions; people can't even afford a kilo of meat." Another added, "We're here to make our voices heard; things aren't going well." The protest underscores the political tensions and economic challenges facing Bolivia. The peaceful nature of the demonstration, however, offers a glimmer of hope for constructive dialogue.
