The president of Bolivia complaint of “irregular movements” of the Army. This Wednesday a tank knocked down the doors of the Bolivian Executive headquarters and entered the interior, after the General Commander of the Bolivian Army, Juan José Zuñiga, threatened to take over the Government and change the cabinet. The response of the international community has not been long in coming, especially that of Latin American countries that have been deeply affected by what happened in the country.

The Peruvian Prime Minister, Gustavo Adrianzén, has rejected “any attempt to violate the rule of law” in Bolivia, where military units led by a tank forcibly stormed the Executive headquarters in the city of La Paz. “Aware of the events that are happening right now in the sister Republic of Bolivia, we want to express our deepest rejection of any attempt to violate the rule of law,” said Adrianzén, who was in the middle of a press conference when the armored vehicle entered to the headquarters of the Bolivian government.

Although he was not the only one. The Government of Ecuador has also regretted the conflict situation in Bolivia, where “irregular” mobilizations have been registered of military troops around the Executive headquarters in La Paz, and said he trusted that a peaceful solution would be found in accordance with the validity of democracy.

On the other hand, Luis Lacalle Pou, president of Uruguay, has expressed through X that c“strongly” condemns the events taking place in Bolivia: “We strongly condemn the events taking place in Bolivia carried out by a sector of its Armed Forces, which threaten its democratic and constitutional order. We express our solidarity with the legitimate government of President @LuchoXBolivia.”

Furthermore, the elected president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, has pointed out that “the uprising of some units of the Bolivian Armed Forces is an attack against democracy” and that “we strongly condemn these events.” His Paraguayan counterpart, Santiago Peña, has expressed the following for X: “Paraguay condemns the irregular mobilizations of the Bolivian Army denounced by the president @LuchoXBolivia”.

The Colombian Government has repudiated the recent events in Bolivia. “The Government of the Republic of Colombia strongly repudiates the actions of some units of the Army of the Plurinational State of Bolivia in the vicinity of the Government Palace in the city of La Paz, whichthat threaten the breakdown of the constitutional order in that country and directly attack democracy and stability in the region“, the Colombian Foreign Ministry said in a statement, in which they do not speak of a “coup d’état.”

Brazil has also joined the codenas, expressing through X that its “commitment to the full validity of democracy in the region” and pointed out that the deployment of troops in the presidential palace in La Paz is “incompatible” with the international obligations of Bolivia.

Gabriel Boric, president of Chile, has been blunt through X expressing his “concern” about the attempted coup by a sector of the Bolivian Army against the Government of Luis Arce, after a tank forcibly entered the headquarters of the Executive in the city of La Paz this Wednesday. “We express our support for democracy in our brother country and for the legitimate government of Luis Arce. “We strongly condemn the unacceptable action of force by a sector of that country’s army,” he denounced.

In the case of the United States, it has urged “calm and moderation”but did not use the designation “coup d’état” that the president of Bolivia, Luis Arce, has used. “The United States is closely monitoring the situation in Bolivia and urges calm and moderation,” said the White House representative.
