Ousted Bolivian president Morales says fresh elections could be held in the country without him
Former Bolivian President Evo Morales gestures during an interview with Reuters, in Mexico City, Mexico, November 15, 2019.
Morales resigned under pressure on Sunday after weeks of protests and violence following an Oct. 20 election that awarded an outright win to him but was tarnished by widespread allegations of fraud. The interim government and MAS lawmakers appear to have reached an accord to hold a new presidential election, but have not chosen a candidate.
Morales, who has been given asylum in Mexico, said he wants to return to Bolivia as soon as his resignation is approved by the Bolivian legislature. Bolivia will expel all officials from Venezuela's embassy in La Paz for "violating diplomatic norms," interim Foreign Minister Karen Longaric said on Friday.
