  • Former Bolivian President Luis Arce has been arrested as part of a corruption investigation, according to the country's vice president on social media. This arrest marks a significant shift in Bolivia's political landscape, occurring just a month after the inauguration of conservative President Rodrigo Paz, which ended two decades of socialist governance.
  • The arrest of Arce could have profound implications for Bolivia's political stability and governance, as it raises questions about corruption within the previous administration and may influence the direction of President Paz's government as it seeks to establish its authority and legitimacy.
