What's behind Bolivia's ongoing protests?

Center-right President Rodrigo Paz's 2025 election victory in Bolivia—following 20 years of socialist rule under Evo Morales and Luis Arce—led to economic reforms including petrol subsidy cuts that sparked widespread anti-government protests. These protests escalated into riots causing fuel, food, and medical supply shortages, bank closures, and calls for Paz's resignation; the government has accused Morales' allies of inciting unrest, while international actors have either backed the government or urged dialogue, with Paz announcing a cabinet reshuffle and plans for an economic and social council to address demands.
