PoliticsBolivia Names Interim Economy Minister After Censure
Bolivia's Congress censured Economy Minister José Gabriel Espinoza Yáñez, likely forcing his removal within 24 hours and prompting the appointment of interim Economy Minister Oscar Mario Justiniano Pinto to head the ministry while a permanent replacement is sought. The move threatens President Paz's economic reform agenda and ongoing IMF negotiations, with Espinoza planning to challenge the censure through Bolivia's constitutional tribunal.
