Morales-allied protesters march on La Paz amid economic crisis and clashes with security forces
Thousands of followers of ex-President Evo Morales marched into Bolivia's capital La Paz on Monday after a six-day trek through the Andes, joining broader protests triggered by the nation's worst economic crisis in a generation. Security forces clashed with demonstrators using tear gas in response to dynamite blasts and calls for President Rodrigo Paz's resignation. The rallies and roadblocks, ongoing for over two weeks, represent the largest challenge to Paz's conservative government, which took office last year following nearly two decades of socialist rule.
