Bolivian President Rodrigo Paz declared a state of emergency across the Latin American country on Saturday after more than six weeks of protests and road blockades.
“After exhausting all avenues of dialogue, reaching agreements with those whose demands were legitimate, and identifying those who used violence in an attempt to destabilize Bolivia, we made the decision to declare a state of emergency across the entire national territory,” Paz said in a televised speech.
