Bolivia failed coup: Arrested general claims president staged it to "push up his popularity"

A Bolivian general, Juan Jose Zuniga, recently stripped of his military command, was arrested in La Paz late on Wednesday after an apparent coup attempt.
Speaking to the media before being arrested, Zuniga alleged that President Luis Arce himself had requested him to stage the coup attempt to "push up his popularity," without offering evidence.
Inside the presidential palace, Arce swore in José Wilson Sanchez as the military commander, Zuniga's former role. He called for calm and order to be restored after residents took to the streets.

    My Bolivian friends told me the Coup failed because the transporting armoured trucks are supplied by China and due to its poor quality and broke down on the wheel joints on the way to the President house, all the trucks were jammed and the first truck even failed to crack down the front door walls with the heavy armoured truck, which led to its shameful retreat in only 3 hours.....with the rebel general caught by the police finally.🤣
