(CNN Spanish) – The Mexican singer Luis Miguel canceled this Monday the concert he planned for March 28 in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, due to “logistical circumstances that affect the viability of the show”, as stated in a statement published by ETime, one of the organizers. The presentation is reported in a published statement.
Luis Miguel visited Central America, South America and the Caribbean in 2024 as part of his tour, which began on January 18 in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic and is scheduled to end in Mexico in November, after also traveling through the United States and Spain.
The suspension of Luis Miguel's concert in Bolivia comes amid growing tensions between the opposition and the two currents of the ruling Movement for Socialism (MAS), divided by the distance between current Bolivian President Luis Arce and his predecessor Evo Morales.
Supporters of Morales have staged several strikes to protest a ruling by the country's Supreme Court extending the mandate of judges, arguing that the Plurinational Legislative Assembly “has failed in its obligation to enact a substantive law that would comply with this Process regulates”. , which refers to the election of judges, as it does not guarantee “reasonable time limits for the pre-selected candidates to be the most suitable candidates”.
In addition, during an eventful session in the Bolivian Chamber of Deputies last week, opposition MPs and supporters of Evo Morales clashed with MPs who remain in Arce's ranks, culminating in the passage of a legislative package last Friday.
