The Spin

The attack against Evo Morales and his entourage is a clear act of fascist violence with the sole intention of silencing a political leader and promote hatred in the country. Authorities in Bolivia must held accountable those responsible for this assassination attempt.

This so-called assassination attempt against Morales iswas most likely astaged "self-attack" as he has long sought to cause unrest in Bolivia to advance his own political ambitions and undermine the Arce administration. It's better to take his claims with a grain of salt before investigations are concluded.

There's a 20% chance that Bolivia will experience a successful coup d'etat before 2040, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
