He Plurinational Constitutional Court (PTS) Bolivia issued this Friday evening a constitutional decree stating that “there is no permanent re-election and that it is not a human right,” several Bolivian political figures, especially detractors of the former president, reacted to this measure. Evo Morales (2006-2019), who is looking for new re-elections for 2025.
Local media broadcast Constitutional Decree 1010/2023 establishes that in Bolivia the President and Vice President may be elected and exercise only two-term mandatewhether continuous or intermittent.
This year the sector of the ruling party Movement towards socialism (MAS), proclaimed Evo Morales How the only candidate for 2025However, the Lauca S convention, which elected Morales, is being questioned by the Electoral Court, which points to irregularities in the process and orders it to be repeated.
In recent months, Evo Morales has fallen out with the current president of Bolivia. Luis Arcewho described Morales as “his main opponent” for constant criticism of his government.
Ex-president Janine Anez (2019-2020), who is in prison under sentence due to the political crisis of 2019 and other cases against him, published on his social networks regarding the decree: “@TCPBolivia puts the final point of Evo Morales’ delirium to be re-elected forever: he orchestrated the rigging of the 2019 elections, violated the Constitution and referendum No. 21F to perpetuate himself. “He must answer to justice for his crimes, incitement to violence and lack of power.”
He @TCPBolivia put an end to Evo Morales’ nonsense about eternal re-election: he organized the rigging of the 2019 elections, violated the Constitution and the referendum #21F to immortalize yourself. He must answer to justice for his crimes, incitement to violence and lack of power.

Also opposition governor of Santa Cruz Fernando Camachowho recently served a year in pre-trial detention for crimes he allegedly committed during the 2019 political crisis, also issued a statement entitled: “The fight against indefinite re-election has won“And he continued: Today the process launched by the Bolivian people on February 21 against indefinite re-election has been consolidated.”
The governor, who suffered from health problems while in prison, added: “With this PTS ruling, we Bolivians guarantee that the tyrant’s apprentice will never appear again who flouts the results of the vote, ignores the referendum, commits fraud with the sole purpose of perpetuating himself in power.”
PTS adopted a resolution Inter-American Court of Human Rights 2021in which the said court refuted the arguments of Evo Morales and found that the indefinite re-election of the president is not a human right.
The Inter-American Court also published at the time:Allowing the president to be re-elected indefinitely is contrary to the principles of representative democracy. and therefore to the obligations set forth in the American Convention on Human Rights and the American Declaration of the Rights and Duties of Man.”
With this measure Evo Morales will be disqualified from future electionsbecause he has already ruled the executive for three periods: 2006-2009, 2009-2014 and 2014-2019, and in his latest attempt, he denounced election fraud against him, which led to a political crisis.
Former President of Bolivia Carlos Mesa (2003-2005), also published his opinion on his TCP social network account. They stole the presidency from us through monumental fraud and corrupt democracy.. “There can be no impunity for those who caused so much damage to the country, nor for their accomplices.”
