BREAKING: Bolivia has cancelled and returned the full sum of the US $346.7 Million IMF loan taken out by the coup regime, in rejection of IMF impositions on internal economic policy.

As of February 2021, the loan had already racked up $24.3 Million in interest and commissions. pic.twitter.com/4sPkAJRtsg

Ah! those lovely multi-million dollar "commissions" so deservingly earned by some mega-banks for assisting with the paperwork and handling the transfer of funds.

seems really big, don't know if there's any precedent for this but it would be great if this sets one

It's wonderful

Ridiculous to call it a coup when there was legitimate elections and landslide victory for the opposition party and a peaceful transfer of power.

Didn’t the government that took over last year without being democratically elected kill dozens of protesters? And people continued to protest? I don’t think the legitimate elections happened in a vacuum.

xp lol what???? Her party polled 4% and as for peaceful, you don’t remove criminal liability from police and the military if you think the transfer of power is going to be peaceful.

Was she in charge of the military while Morales resigned under military threat? Or of the National Union of Workers?

Did she make the election audit that lead to widespread false claims that Morales had committed electoral fraud?

If there is clarity that she indeed contributed to the errors to the OAS report or that she colluded with the National Union and military to oust Morales, then I'll gladly called it a coup.

Van Horn Street, Sunday, 14 March 2021 22:31 (three years ago) link

I still think a Morales 4th term would be largely unconstitutional and that he ought to have respected the results of the 2016 referendum.

Do they have hanging for fascists like Anez in Bolivia? Be cool if they did.

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 14 March 2021 23:12 (three years ago) link

Calling it opposition crackdown is hyperbolic, Añez barely represents the opposition.

yes, the dictator installed by the military who overthrew the democratically elected government wasn't personally responsible for the coup itself, therefore it wasn't actually a coup

Añez's daughter traveled to the United States this week to seek assistance from allies in Washington.

Really good thread, directed @ leftists.

a vietnamese communist posted a picture with a plot of land given to them by the government and was immediately inundated with responses from ""leftists"" living in imperialist nations asking things like "heh, when is your government gonna allow independent unions" look at us man

#UPDATE Bolivian ex-president Jeanine Anez was sentenced to 10 years in prison Friday over an alleged plot to oust her rival and predecessor Evo Morales.
