Bolivia Many buildings in the capital La Paz were looted and set on fire the night after former president Evo Molares announced his resignation.

Violence broke out in Bolivia's capital La Paz on the night of November 10 when supporters of former President Evo Morales clashed with opposition protesters. A series of looting and arson also occurred, causing many buildings in La Paz on fire.

Waldo Albarracin, a Bolivian opposition member, accused Morales supporters of arsoning his own home. The former Bolivian president's mansion was also demolished and graffiti after he moved to another area.

Former President Morales continued to criticize the opposition, claiming he was the victim of a subversion plot. "The world and Bolivian patriots do not accept this coup. They make me cry. They never give up on me and I will never abandon them," Morales wrote on Twitter today.

Several Latin American countries have expressed their support for the former Bolivian prime minister, the Organization of American States (OAS), to call for re-election. Russia accused the Bolivian opposition of causing violence, while the US urged civilian governments to control the situation in the country.

Former President Evo Morales announced his resignation on November 10 after the army and police turned to support the protest movement, urging him to leave his seat. Morales said he made the decision for "the good of the country" but added that "dark forces have destroyed national democracy", referring to the opponents he accused of plotting a coup.

Morales became Bolivia's first indigenous president in 2006. He was elected for a fourth consecutive term in elections in October after the constitutional court decided to lift the presidential term limit. Opposition accused of fraud in election results, calling for the organization to vote again.
