Evo Morales remains based in Bolivia’s Chapare region as of mid-2026, where he continues directing protests against President Rodrigo Paz amid the country’s deepest economic crisis in decades. Court rulings have imposed an active travel ban and two arrest warrants tied to statutory rape allegations, which he has refused to address in proceedings while dismissing the charges as politically motivated. His public reappearance in February 2026 after weeks of absence quelled exit rumors, and he has since led marches into La Paz and endorsed regional candidates, reinforcing his domestic political role. Ongoing roadblocks and clashes through May and June have kept him central to opposition dynamics, with calls for early elections adding pressure on the timeline. These legal barriers and sustained engagement inside the country form the main constraints on any departure by specific deadlines.
