    Bolivia: Evo Morales displaces from MAS leadership

    New MAS Chairman Grover García belongs to President Luis Arce Catacora's faction as Evo's aura seems to be coming to an end

    Former President Evo Morales has been deposed as leader of Bolivia's Movement Towards Socialism (MAS) after a party congress over the weekend chose Grover Garcia to chair the political movement. The winner is aligned with incumbent President Luis Arce Catacora, a former ally of Morales' who has become his deadliest enemy in recent years. García stems from the Single Confederation of Bolivian Peasant Workers Union (CSUTCB) and was also mayor of the municipality of Tiraque.
