Bolivian Court Bars Evo Morales from Future Elections

The decision prevents the former president from running in the 2025 election, amid ongoing political tensions and protests.

Bolivia's constitutional court reaffirmed a ruling that limits presidents to two terms, barring Evo Morales from running again.
Morales, Bolivia's first Indigenous president, led the country from 2006 to 2019 before resigning amid protests over alleged election fraud.
The court's decision follows charges against Morales for statutory rape, which he claims are politically motivated to block his political return.
Supporters of Morales have been protesting since October, demanding President Luis Arce's resignation and causing disruptions across the country.
The ruling highlights the ongoing power struggle between Morales and his former ally, President Arce, within the ruling MAS party.
