Bolivia’s Unfolding Drama: Failed Coup and International Response

The United States had no involvement in a recent failed coup attempt in Bolivia, according to the White House. The coup was led by Juan Jose Zuniga, a former military commander, who falsely claimed the country's president sought popular support through this action. President Luis Arce denied involvement, and Zuniga was arrested.

The United States had no involvement in a failed coup attempt in Bolivia last week, the White House said on Wednesday. "The U.S. had no involvement in that," White House spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters in a press briefing, adding Washington had condemned the deployment of army units in Bolivia.

The failed coup attempt was led by the country's former top military commander, Juan Jose Zuniga, who alleged the nation's president had asked him to do something to boost his popularity. Bolivian President Luis Arce has denied any involvement and Zuniga was arrested.
