Bolivia is embroiled in a political crisis, compared to the overthrow of Evo Morales in November 2019.
There is a dispute between the government of Luis Arce and former president Evo Morales.
Arce, Morales' former ally, has completely disconnected, becoming his main adversary.
Discontent with the current executive is visible, criticized for the management of the economy, the lack of fuel, dollars and inflation.
Morales faces a series of legal resolutions, including an arrest warrant for the alleged violation of a minor.
Intense protests have occurred, including the occupation of military barracks and road blockades.
Morales exceeded the constitutional limit of 10 years in power, running for president again in 2019 after losing a referendum on re-election.

Conclusion: The situation in Bolivia is critical and there is a risk of a descent into chaos. The government should focus on addressing the needs of the population and mitigating political tension.
