Bolivia’s president announces 50% pay cut as political crisis deepens
Bolivia’s President Rodrigo Paz has announced a 50% salary cut for himself and his cabinet ministers as a gesture of solidarity amid an escalating political crisis. The move comes as the country enters its fourth week of protests and road blockades demanding his resignation. Demonstrators are pressuring the government to reverse austerity measures and tackle rising living costs, while severe shortages of food, fuel and medicine hit key cities.
