BOLIVIA’S former president Evo Morales insisted that “the struggle does not end here” against the US-backed fascist coup that overthrew him earlier this month, shortly after his fourth election victory.
Speaking on Tuesday at a meeting with students of the National Autonomous University of Mexico alongside his former vice-president Alvaro Garcia Linera and health minister Gabriela Montano, Mr Morales struck a defiant tone.
“It hurts [to see] so many lost families and how they [the right] are destroying what we have built for the economic liberation,” he said.
