The president of Bolivia, Rodrigo Paz Pereira, elected in the second round of elections in 2025, faces resistance from the Bolivian population, who are holding several protests against his government.


There have been three weeks of demonstrations against Paz Pereira, with protests that intensified over the last weekend and are expected to continue in the coming days.


Protesters' demands include increased wages, opposition to reforms announced by the government and protests against fuel shortages and poor quality.

Paz was born in 1967, thousands of kilometers from the Andes, in Spain, when his family was in exile during a time of military dictatorships in their country.


After his first years abroad, he studied in La Paz. He was 12 years old when his father was the only survivor of an alleged air attack.


The Bolivian leader studied economics and international relations, in addition to earning a master's degree in political management at the American University, in Washington.


In 2002, he arrived at Congress as a deputy for the department of Tarija, but between 2010 and 2020 he returned to the city of the same name, where he was first a councilor and then mayor.


In the last five years, he served as national senator for the Comunidad Ciudadana alliance, led by former president Carlos Mesa.
