🇧🇴 The results of the first round in Bolivia shocked many: the poll favorite failed, and the ruling MAS crashed out of the race. For the first time in many years.
The key factor is the brutal split on the left between Morales and Arce. Their ambitions have buried the chances of the entire movement.
The CIIC co-founder, Maria Prokofieva, has prepared a special article for our channel dedicated to how this crisis happened and what awaits us in the second round.
The outcome of the second round is unpredictable, and the gap between the candidates is minimal. Bolivia stands at the threshold of a fundamental choice that will determine not only its internal development but also its place in the system of regional and global alliances.
