Mexico City, December 2 (RHC)-- The democratically-elected President of Bolivia, Evo Morales, said Sunday that he would value the option of being imprisoned in Bolivia, if that action helps the Bolivian people, who suffer from a climate of anxiety and instability after the coup d'etat driven by the right of the South American country.

"For the Bolivian people, for the political instrument, for the MAS, do I serve more in asylum in Mexico or imprisoned in Bolivia?  I will be where I serve more.  Here or imprisoned in Bolivia.  I have been imprisoned before and I am not afraid of that," Morales said.

During an interview with the Argentinian newspaper Página 12, the Evo said he has "a deep internal debate about what to do."  Evo Morales, who is blocked from running in the upcoming elections, will help influence the election of the presidential candidate of the Movement toward Socialism (MAS).

In recent days, and after the announcement by the right-wing competitors, the political and electoral strategy of the party has been organized, so it participates via teleconference and maintains long telephone sessions of debate, discussion and planning with leaders of the nine departments.

Evo said that "another Bolivia is possible," without the "blackmail and conditioning of the IMF and the World Bank," while confirming that during his administration "there have been small errors."

"We all make mistakes, we are human.  And the mistakes were not due to personal ambitions," Evo Morales said, while considering that in his government they managed to reduce "poverty and inequality" and brought "growth and stability" to the nation.
