Compare Jeanine Anez with another historical figure:
After the resignation of President Evo Morales following disputed elections, Jeanine
Áñez's government faced widespread protests from supporters of Evo Morales. Her administration was accused of using excessive force, including military and police crackdowns, resulting in deaths and injuries, particularly in Senkata and Sacaba.
Áñez's government organized new general elections in 2020, which were won by Luis Arce, a candidate from Morales' party. She stepped down after the election, ending her interim presidency.
Áñez was arrested and imprisoned on charges of terrorism, sedition, and conspiracy related to her role in the 2019 political crisis. Her imprisonment was seen by supporters as political persecution and by opponents as justice for human rights abuses.
