LA PAZ, BOLIVIA – June 3, 2025 – Amidst growing political instability, Samuel Doria Medina, a pre-candidate for the upcoming Bolivian elections, has called for general elections as the only viable democratic solution to the nation's crisis. In a recent news segment aired on Red Uno, Doria Medina directly addressed the situation, stating, "The crisis in the country is intertwined with the interests of some in forcing Evo Morales' candidacy."
