The president of brazil, Jair Bolsonarostated that his country would be willing to give him “shelter”» to the former de facto president of Bolivia, Jeanine Añezrecently sentenced to 10 years in prison for the coup against the Government of Evo Morales in the year 2019.
«Brazil is putting into practice the issue of international relations, human rights, to see if it brings Jeanine Áñez, offers her shelter here in Brazil. It is an injustice for a woman imprisoned in Bolivia, “said the president in statements collected by the Bolivian newspaper El Deber, Télam replied.
Alluding to Bolivia, Bolsonaro also attacked his opponent in the October presidential elections, Lula da Silva, whom he criticized for not referring to the sentence that the Bolivian justice handed down against Áñez. «The former president (Evo Morales) and the current one (louis arce) are friends of Lula, and he says absolutely nothing about this case,” questioned the right-wing president.
In addition, he considered that the offer to Áñez is a practice that is part of international relations and human rights, considering that the ruling that affects the former de facto president is an injustice. Áñez was sentenced to ten years in prison for breach of duties and resolutions contrary to the Constitution and the laws, at the conclusion of the “Coup d’etat II” case in which she analyzed her decision to assume the leadership of the State in November 2019.
The sentence was the end of an extensive process, with numerous interruptions – some technical and others related to the health of the former president – and constitutes the first relevant resolution on the forced departure from power of then president Evo Morales and the de facto government that took over instead.
