Bolivian President Evo Morales announces his resignation in hope to calm the country after weeks of unrest over a disputed election that he had claimed to win
Bolivian President Evo Morales' resignation came after agreeing earlier in the day to hold a new election.
His resignation came after the commander of Bolivia's armed forces General Williams Kaliman called on the embattled leader to resign. South America's longest-serving leader also made the election announcement after a preliminary report by the Organisation of American States [OAS] found a "heap of observed irregularities" in the October 20 presidential contest and recommended a new election.
Camacho, a civic leader who has become a symbol of the opposition, said the OAS findings, which were released in the report earlier, clearly demonstrate election fraud. "Mindful of the heap of observed irregularities, it's not possible to guarantee the integrity of the numbers and give certainty of the results."Pressure increased on Morales on Saturday when police guards outside Bolivia's presidential palace abandoned their posts.
