Historic Victory in Bolivia
Evo Morales has just been reelected as President of the multinational Republic of Bolivia for another term of five years. This is a historic victory for both the unprecedented massive turnout and the result: over 62%. This result is evidence of growing popular support and reveals the commitment of the Bolivian people to the democratic and cultural revolution under way in this Andean country.
This same commitment has been observed during the vote of Bolivians living abroad, particularly in Latin America and Spain.
The new majority will have greater legitimacy which will allow the government resulting from this election to move towards the deep democratic, social, economic and cultural transformations intended by this nation.
The working group of Latin America of the Party of European Left congratulates very warmly the Bolivian people, the Movement Toward Socialism (MAS) and President Evo Morales for this victory that strengthens the struggle for human emancipation of progressive forces in Latin America and all over the world.
