VIDEO: Evo Morales tells The Grayzone ‘The people have reached their breaking point’

Former Bolivian President Evo Morales discusses the ongoing protests in Bolivia, attributing them to external and internal pressures. He criticizes the U.S. government for an alleged assassination attempt and warns that attempts to exclude him from elections could lead to a return of right-wing influence in Bolivia.

In an exclusive interview with The Grayzone’s Oscar Leon, former Bolivian President Evo Morales about the direction the protests will take from here on out, the context that caused them, and the accusations against him. This is the latest in a series of conversations with Bolivia’s first indigenous president regarding the aggression against his country’s sovereignty, emanating both from Washington and from within the nation itself.

In The Grayzone’s first exclusive interview with Evo Morales in 2024, he said the US government was to blame for an assassination attempt that nearly claimed his life just one month prior.

In his second interview with The Grayzone’s Oscar Leon in 2025, Morales warned that efforts by the government of Luis Arce to disqualify him from electoral participation would lead to a resurgence of the right-wing in the Andean country.
