The former president of Bolivia, Evo Morales, whose supporters have been blocking the country's important roads and clashing with the police for 19 days, has announced a hunger strike and called for dialogue.
"We do not want bloodshed, we have always sought sincere dialogue, I request the Unity Pact and the People's General Staff to consider the fourth interim option of blocking the roads, during which we will go on a hunger strike.
In addition, we call for the creation of two discussion forums to discuss economic and political issues," Morales wrote on the Facebook* social network.
He also asked for mediation in dialogue from international organizations and friendly countries.
Demonstrators are unhappy with rising food prices and fuel shortages in the country. In addition, they want to stop the investigation against Morales, who is suspected of human trafficking and child abuse.
