"We condemn the immorality of imperialism, which, through political pressure, bribes, and intimidation by the government of Rodrigo Paz, is targeting the Legislative Assembly.

They moved up the session, taking advantage of the Vice President’s absence; they deployed police and military personnel to the legislature; and, according to assembly members, foreign personnel from the U.S. Embassy and the Shield of the Americas are present, in addition to offers of bribes to suspend the Attorney General.

We cannot allow the decisions of the legislative body to be imposed through threats, nor can we allow our sovereignty to be bargained away in exchange for perks. We call on the Bolivian people and the international community not to tolerate this kind of abuse." - Evo Morales Ayma (on X)

"Christian Democratic Party (PDC) Senator Ana Crispín alleged that “individuals from The Shield of the Americas” were making payments of up to $40,000 via QR codes to legislators, allegedly in exchange for their support of certain decisions in the Legislative Assembly. The allegation comes amid tensions in the Legislative Assembly, which is meeting this Friday to address the case of Attorney General Roger Mariaca." https://www.instagram.com/p/Dd_6kOziNK2/
