JAKARTA - Luis Arce has officially won the presidential election of Bolivia. The 57-year-old man is now officially sworn in and sworn in as the new President of Bolivia. Arce's election is what Bolivians have been waiting for since former President Evo Morales relinquished his status as Bolivia's number one in November last year.

"We are starting a new era in our history and we want to do it with a government that includes everyone, without discrimination of any kind," said the leader of the Movement for Socialism (MAS) party, quoted by Yeni Safak, Monday, November 9.

"Our government will seek to rebuild our country in unity to live in peace," he added.

Even so, Arce also slipped criticism in his speech. The criticism was directed at the provisional government, Jeanine Anez, who was accused of destroying the domocracy in Bolivia. This is because Anez's steps to delay the presidential election have caused the loss of many lives.

Not only that, a few hours before being inaugurated, Arce also talked about the possibility that Bolivia would establish new cooperation with the United States (US). That's because US citizens have elected the 46th president, Joe Biden.

"With the new government, we hope to improve the relationship that translates into the well-being of our people," Arce tweeted.

Meanwhile, President Arce's coronation ceremony was held in La Paz. In the ceremony, regional leaders and several leaders of friendly countries attended to welcome the new president. Some of them include the names of King Felipe VI of Spain, the Presidents of Paraguay, Argentina and Colombia.

It was noted that only the President of Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro, did not come to the inauguration ceremony. However, Maduro immediately sent Foreign Minister Jorge Arreaza to replace him. At the same time, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif and senior officials from Chile also attended to enliven the inauguration ceremony.
