  1. #BoliviaEnCrisis The most unexpected outcome of the August blockades is Govt Minister Arturo Murillo crowing about not shooting anyone. M la-razon.com/nacional/2020/08/18/murillo-asegura-que-el-gobierno-evito-mas-muertes-y-guerra-civil-en-las-protestas/

      Murillo correctly remembers that the 2003 gas convoy through El Alto was a bloody disaster, when the military shot dozens dead (though not all of the ~70 Gas War deaths happened around it).

        Plenty of apparent exaggeration re protesters' weaponry from Murillo. Only people wounded by gunfire this month were shot by pro-government UJC in Santa Cruz dept.
