Bolivian President Rodrigo Paz has declared a state of emergency, clearing the way for a military deployment to end ongoing protests that are blockading major highways. The move comes after the government failed to resolve the 50-day standoff with the Bolivian Workers' Confederation (COB) through negotiation. The earlier deal reached with the COB has now collapsed, prompting the emergency declaration to restore order and reopen critical transportation routes.
