Last week in Latin America, Bolivia's political crisis reached a breaking point, Colombia delivered a decisive election result, and drug trafficking made headlines across three countries.   After more than six weeks of road blockades that brought La Paz to a standstill, Bolivia's President Paz declared a nationwide state of emergency and deployed the military. In Colombia, a Trump-backed outsider won the presidential runoff. Brazil saw a major cocaine seizure and a conviction linked to the Bolsonaro family. The week closed with a gang assassination at a Caribbean airport and a missing American case in Mexico uncovering four bodies.   Here is our round-up of the headlines.   Bolivian president declares state of emergency Read more at: https://lnkd.in/dnpwzSxJ   Bolivia clears anti-government roadblocks after emergency decree, as patrol plane crash kills 6 Read more at: https://lnkd.in/dMpf_vcU   Brazil convicts Jair Bolsonaro's son of pursuing US help in father's legal battle Read more at: https://lnkd.in/d95RYQsy   Brazil seizes suspected massive cocaine haul hidden in timber cargo Read more at: https://lnkd.in/dd3JBsvA   About 100 Colombian guerrilla dissidents disarm under peace talks with government Read more at: https://lnkd.in/dbbVrc8q   Trump-backed political outsider wins Colombia election, initial count shows Read more at: https://lnkd.in/dMpXRK36   Massive fire destroys resort in Dominican Republic and forces evacuation of almost 1,700 tourists Read more at: https://lnkd.in/dCFgx_vH   Suspected gang leader shot dead in flower bouquet ambush at airport Read more at: https://lnkd.in/d9_GhxhA   Authorities find 4 bodies outside Mexico City while searching for a missing American Read more at: https://lnkd.in/drEw-7GV   MIC Worldwide provides on-the-ground risk assessment and business intelligence across Latin America.   Contact us today: www.micww.com [email protected] +1 305 491-7579 (U.S. mobile) +549 11 6169-4787 (Argentine mobile)   #News #LatinAmerica #Security #MICWorldwide
