Bolivian Presidential Debate: Del Castillo Challenges Quiroga on Gold Protection and Resource Future

La Paz, Bolivia – In a pivotal segment of the "UNO DECIDE 2025" presidential debates, Eduardo Del Castillo directly challenged Jorge "Tuto" Quiroga on the critical issue of Bolivia's natural resources, specifically its gold reserves. The heated exchange, broadcast by Red Uno, focused on whether future leadership would prioritize the protection of national wealth or risk its "total plundering." Del Castillo pressed Quiroga, asking, "Are you going to protect the gold or will you permit the total plundering of Bolivia?" He urged for transparency regarding contracts in Congress and questioned whether Quiroga would advocate for delaying their treatment until a new government is in place, emphasizing the need to safeguard the patrimony of Bolivians. In response, Quiroga underscored the paramount importance of Bolivia and its people. He stated that his candidacy represents the interests of the popular bloc and the nation's youth, vowing not to "mortgage the dreams of the youth" by selling off state enterprises, a practice he attributed to past decades, including the 1990s and early 2000s. Quiroga also highlighted the necessity of a lithium law for Oruro and Potosí, prioritizing Bolivian families.
