Bolivia crisis: how did we get here and what happens next?

A disputed election, a deposed president and widespread street protests have left the country in turmoil

Bolivia was plunged into a deepening political crisis this week after Evo Morales - the country's first indigenous president and its longest-serving leader - was forced to step down following pressure from the military, police and public protests over allegations that he stole an election on 20 October, which would have seen him remain in power until 2025.

An interim administration led by Jeanine inez has assumed power with a mandate to call fresh elections but violent protests have claimed 10 lives and the South American country of 11 million people faces its most uncertain moment in several decades.
