Bolivian President Luis Arce warned Wednesday that an irregular deployment of troops was taking place in the capital, raising concerns that a potential coup was underway.
Zúñiga did not explicitly say he's leading a coup, but in the palace, with bangs echoing behind him, he said the army was trying to “restore democracy and free our political prisoners.” Former President Evo Morales, also in a message on X, denounced the movement of the military in the Murillo square outside the palace, calling it a coup “in the making.”
