> CARACAS (Reuters) - The resignation of Bolivian President Evo
Morales, the last serving member of the 'pink tide' of leftist
leaders that swept Latin America two decades ago, polarized
governments across the region on Sunday, with presidents from
Venezuela to Argentina denouncing a "coup" and others cheering
his exit.
>
> Morales, Bolivia's first indigenous leader, ended his 14-year
rule after allies deserted him following weeks of protests over
a disputed Oct. 20 election that has roiled the Andean nation.
On Sunday, the Bolivian military and key political backers
called on him to step down.
>
> Right-leaning governments in Latin America, among them
Colombia and Peru, called on the Bolivian state to ensure new
elections would be lawful. Brazil, under far-right nationalist
Jair Bolsonaro, went further and welcomed Morales' fall.
>
> Meanwhile, embattled Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro,
whose socialist predecessor Hugo Chavez served as a sometime
mentor to Morales, told allies to mobilize in support of
Morales.
>
> "We have to take care of our brother Evo Morales," Maduro said
in a recording broadcast on Venezuelan state television. "We
must declare a vigil in solidarity to protect him."
>
> Maduro's position has been bolstered by the return of
left-leaning leaders in Mexico and Argentina. But Morales'
resignation could unnerve the Venezuelan leader, who has clung
to power this year despite an opposition campaign to convince
the armed forces to rebel.
>
> Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel, another longtime Morales
ally, tweeted his "solidarity" and said: "The world must be
mobilized for the life and freedom of Evo."
>
> Mexico's government rejected what it called a military
operation under way in Bolivia, adding that there must be "no
coup." Mexico could offer asylum to Morales if he sought it,
Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard said on Twitter, though there
was no immediate claim.
>
> And Argentine President-elect Alberto Fernandez, who won a
landslide election victory last month in Latin America's
third-largest economy, said "the institutional breakdown in
Bolivia is unacceptable."
> ...
> Morales became president in 2006, joining Chavez, Argentina's
Nestor Kirchner and Brazil's Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva in a
left-wing surge across the continent that refashioned state
institutions and polarized domestic politics.

Background:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_relations_of_Bolivia
--- Quote ---
> In January 2009, Bolivia limited its foreign relationship with
Israel in the wake of strikes in Gaza by Israel. Bolivia has
reportedly promised to take Israel to an international court for
alleged war crimes committed in Gaza. This was the statement of
the Bolivian President Evo Morales. On 30 July 2014, Bolivian
relations with Israel were further strained. The country's
president, Evo Morales, has declared Israel a "terrorist state"
after their attack on Gaza.[23] Following this declaration, the
Bolivian president has stated that he would terminate a 40-year
agreement which allowed Israelis to travel to the country.

I should not have to explain what the present ouster of Morales
is actually about.

relations with Israel and expelled the Israeli ambassador Shlomo
Cohen as well as seven members of the diplomatic mission, after
the decision of President Evo Morales of the leftist Movement
for Socialism party that came to power in 2006. Following the
decision, the leader of the Jewish community in the country,
Abraham Levi, stated that the Bolivian government "has taken a
position of a terrorist group, supporting Hamas and not
accepting the arguments of the Israeli government."[14] Morales
was considered an ally of former Venezuelan President Hugo
Chávez, who also severed diplomatic ties with Israel following
the operation.[15]

Israel a "terror state" due to the IDF's activity in the
operation that year.[16] As a result of the decision, the visa
waiver that had been in place between the countries since the
agreement signed between them in 1972 on the subject was
cancelled.[17] Morales also promised to prohibit Israelis from
visiting Bolivia.[18]

>
> On 28 November 2019, Bolivian Foreign Minister Karen Longaric
announced the country's intention to resume diplomatic relations
with Israel.[19] The Israeli Foreign Ministry Israel Katz
welcomed the decision.[20] This move came after Morales'
resignation from the presidency, as he demonstrated pro-Iranian
and anti-American positions, distancing himself from the Western
world since taking office, after receiving political asylum in
Mexico following widespread protests against his government,
breaking into his home, and placing a bounty on his head.[21] It
also renewed the visa waiver for Israelis touring Bolivia.

of that year.[27]
