BOLIVIAN PRESIDENT EVO MORALES TO RESIGN AMID CALLS FOR NEW ELECTIONS

The decision comes after continued protests for the president to step down.

An opposition figure in Bolivia's Senate declared herself the country’s interim
president late Tuesday following the resignation of Evo Morales.




Jeanine Añez, a 52-year-old women’s rights activist and former television
presenter, took control of the Senate on Tuesday, a move that puts her next in
line for the presidency.

Lawmakers of Morales' Movement for Socialism party were not present when Añez
made the announcement. Juan Cala of Morales' Movement for Socialism said the
party wouldn’t participate because the assembly session is “illegal.”



Bolivia has been beset by violent protests in recent weeks, sparked by
allegations of fraud in the Oct. 20 election that Morales claimed to have won.



BOLIVIAN EX-LEADER CLAIMS TO HAVE SPENT NIGHT AFTER RESIGNING LYING ON FLOOR
UNDER BLANKET, LANDS IN MEXICO



Morales, who was the country’s first indigenous president, stepped down Sunday
at the "suggestion" of his country's military chief and went into hiding. His
whereabouts were unknown after he claimed officials in Bolivia wanted him
arrested – an allegation police have disputed.

Morales left Bolivia Tuesday after Mexico granted him asylum. Mexican Foreign
Secretary Marcelo Ebrard met Morales as he arrived at the capital's airport
after a flight that was complicated by some countries' reluctance to let the
plane use their airspace.



Morales’ supporters have likened his resignation to a coup d'etat – an assertion
echoed by some Washington lawmakers.



It is unclear to what extent Bolivians will support Añez.

Amid tears Monday, Añez told reporters she wanted to “give certainty” to
Bolivians in place of a power vacuum. “I just want to provide a salutation to
the horrible crisis that we’re living through.”

Fox News' Stephen Sorace and The Associated Press contributed to this report.
