Various social sectors in Bolivia have initiated a series of mobilizations at the national level to demand the immediate resignation of President Rodrigo Paz, whom they accuse of incapacity in government management and of maintaining an indifferent attitude to citizen demands.

The epicenter of this protest is located in Chimoré, where the Six Federations of the Tropics of Cochabamba, accompanied by former president Evo Morales, have begun a march that promises to escalate in intensity over the next few days in response to what they describe as a failed administration.

The legitimacy of this social discontent has been backed by local figures such as Deputy Mayor Bernardina Mita, who has publicly denounced that the president has been unable to solve the structural problems that afflict the country.

According to the demonstrators, the Government has systematically ignored social demands, aggravating the economic and social crisis that the nation is going through, which has triggered the exhaustion of various unions that are now demanding a profound change in the leadership of the State.

In parallel with the mobilization in the tropics, pressure against the Executive is multiplying from the highlands with the march of the Federation of Peasant Workers Túpac Katari. This contingent, which has been joined by organizations from Potosí and representatives of the Bolivian Workers' Central, is moving from the city of El Alto to the center of power in La Paz, with the objective of converging in a massive protest that seeks to force the resignation of Rodrigo Paz through popular mobilization and the demand for concrete answers.

The situation represents a critical challenge to the stability of the Paz government, which is under a siege of coordinated protests by key sectors of Bolivian political and trade union life. With the march of the demonstrators to the seat of government, the country enters a scenario of high political tension, while the mobilized organizations warn that they will maintain their pressure measures until the president leaves office, pointing out that the dialogue with this administration has reached a definitive breaking point.
