Coup plans denounced in Bolivia

Pedro-Damian-Dorado-300x169
La Paz, Sep 5 (Prensa Latina) The ghost of the coup d'état returned to the fore in Bolivia today after the complaint made on television by the vice president of the Association of Municipalities of Santa Cruz (Amdecruz), Pedro Damián Dorado.

“We, as the municipal associative system of Santa Cruz, have been warning about the motives of the Inter-institutional Committee and Governor Fernando Camacho regarding the handling of the census, which would be used as a flag to carry out a new coup d’état,” Dorado assured in an interview. to the state channel Bolivia TV.

The leader of Amdecruz affirmed that the highest departmental authority has a coup vocation and became the tyrant of that jurisdiction.

Referring to the town hall convened for September 30 by the so-called Inter-institutional Committee made up of power elites from Santa Cruz with the demand that the Population and Housing Census be carried out in 2023, the interviewee denounced it had become a subversive organization.

He insisted this lodge of wealthy people advances in a destabilizing agenda to take power by force as in November, 2019.

“Definitely, the last meeting reveals that the committee has become a subversive organization because of the agenda it proposes,” Dorado reaffirmed.

He indicated the Amdecruz spokesman said Bolivians and people from Santa Cruz are tired of the confrontation and do not want to repeat what they experienced in 2019 characterized by crying, persecution, mourning, bloodshed and imprisonment.

“The governor does not have a programmatic agenda, he does not have a development agenda, his only plan is to create a new coup. For this reason, the mayors of Santa Cruz are not going to participate in this new attempt of violence, discrimination and fascism”, concluded the Amdecruz representative.

Referring recently to the anti-government demonstrations that, coincidentally, were announced by the faction of the Departmental Association of Coca Producers in La Paz (Adepcoca) headed by Freddy Machicado, and the Santa Cruz elites, the constitutional lawyer Franklin Gutiérrez considered that behind there is “a black hand”.

Gutiérrez recalled that given the impossibility for the followers of Machicado and those of Arnold Alanes to reach an agreement to resolve internal disputes between these factions over control of the coca market in La Paz, the authorities began separate talks with each of them in search for a negotiated solution within that private association.

However, Machicado “kicked the board” and now announces a protest with thousands of mobilized people who will march towards La Paz.

Gutiérrez called on the Bolivia TV channel to investigate who is financing the announced protests, which in his opinion are against the government of President Luis Arce.
