Bolivia Bares Destabilization Plot

La Paz, Aug 24 (Prensa Latina) The Bolivian government accused Friday
opposition parties and authorities from six departments of trying to
destabilize the country during the strike slated for August 28.

According to Interior Minister Alfredo Rada, the measure, agreed
Thursday in the so-called Crucenidad Assembly, has political purposes
and aims to hinder the process of change boosted by President Evo
Morales.

Rada told Prensa Latina that as pretexts, the opposition first used the
demand in the southern city of Sucre to assemble the three executive,
legislative and judiciary powers.

Another illegitimate argument is the defense of four judges from the
Constitutional Court that the deputy chamber decided to try by majority.

The top official recalled that three of those lawyers were elected on
October 3, 2003, days before the military repression ordered by former
President Gonzalo Sanchez de Lozada, that left 67 people dead and
dozens of injured.

According to Rada, the August 28 strike is not going to build a country
or set up the new Homeland.
