Colombian indigenous people greet Evo Morales' re-election in Bolivia

 The National Indigenous Organization of Colombia (ONIC) greeted President Evo Morales on Tuesday for his victory in the elections held last Sunday in Bolivia.

Our greetings to brother president, who has been confirmed as president. Congratulations to this free and sovereign country that advances with social, political and economic transformations, expressed on Twitter Luis Kankui, senior advisor of ONIC.

With more than 97 percent of the minutes verified, Morales won the first round of presidential elections, after reaching 46.86 of the votes; while the candidate for Comunidad Ciudadana (CC), Carlos Mesa, obtained 36.72, according to preliminary calculations.

There are currently pockets of violence in Tarija, Chuquisaca, Oruro and La Paz after Mesa declared on television that it did not know Morales' victory and incited violence in response to the results of last Sunday's democratic exercise.

According to experts and denunciations of the Nicaragua Rebelde portal, the attitude of the representative of the CC responds to a coup plan of the United States against Bolivia.
