Massive Pro-Cuba/Anti-U.S. Result!!!
The photo above is one of 14 that the Associated Press sent around the world this afternoon {Oct. 19, 2020}. The AP began its awesomely important news article with these exact words:
"Evo Morales' party has claimed victory in a presidential election that appears to sharply shift Bolivia away from the conservative policies of the U.S.-backed interim government that took power after the leftist leader resigned and fled the country a year ago. The leading rival of Morales's hand-picked successor, Luis Arce, conceded defeat on Monday, as did interim President Jeanine Anez, a bitter foe of Morales."
A year ago a coup in Bolivia chased President Evo Morales from office and out of the country. Morales and neutral observers believe that the coup was supported by United States efforts fueled by vicious Trump-empowered anti-Cuban forces in Miami and in Congress. Morales remains one of the world's strongest supporters of Cuba.
Bolivia's indigenous majority loved having one their own, Evo Morales, as their President and they repeatedly elected him. He is now 60-years-old and had been elected President for the first time in 2002.
This photo shows some of the aftermath after the coup in Bolivia a year ago that chased Evo Morales to Mexico in fear for his life.
Since being deposed by the coup, Evo Morales has called himself a "New Internationalist." In that role in the past year Morales has used the media, including social media, to denounce the USA under President Trump "as dangerous to the world, especially Latin America and the Caribbean, because of its bloody obsession to recapture Cuba at all costs. Next to Cuba, the United States wants to eviscerate any and all nations in the Western Hemisphere that show concern or respect for Cuba."
This BBC photo shows Evo Morales this week in Argentina where he is living during his forced exile since the coup. As shown above, he continued fervently campaigning to "overturn the U.S.-backed coup that forced me from power in Bolivia so a USA-backed regime could rule, which it has for a year. In years past, the U. S. got away with forcing murderous right-wing regimes in many Latin America and Caribbean nations, especially the U.S.-backed Mafia-Batista regime that ruled Cuba prior to the 1959 Cuban Revolution. Now the Trump regime in Washington wants regimes like that all over the region. If Trump wins a second 4-year term in next month's U. S. presidential election, that will allow anti-Cuba extremists like Marco Rubio and his kind to capture Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua for sure."
Of course, Americans are not supposed to know it, but the views espoused this week by Evo Morales from Argentina align with the views of most Caribbean and Latin American people regarding Rubio's and Trump's plans for Cuba as well as for Cuba's closest allies. But, for sure, today's presidential election in Bolivia drastically reversed the U.S.-backed coup that forced pro-Cuban President Evo Morales from power and forced him to seek safety in Mexico and now Argentina. And how Rubio and Trump respond to today's presidential election in Bolivia remains to be seen.
