Andean Group - October 2021
Introduction
The disputed events surrounding the ousting of former president Evo Morales (2006-2009) and the ascension of his successor, Jeanine Áñez (2019-2020), is the wound that refuses to heal in Bolivian politics. The issue was revisited once again on 17 August, when the Inter American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) published a damning indictment of human rights violations committed under Áñez. We begin this October edition of the Latin American Regional Report: Andean Group by examining how the report’s findings have been weaponised by both the government and the opposition, which has called for sweeping judicial reform in response to the report’s warnings that Áñez is unlikely to receive a fair trial and are calling for sweeping judicial reform.
