Bolivian Miners Clash with Police Demanding President Resign Bolivia's government is facing growing unrest as miners clash with police in a standoff that has left several people dead and many more injured.
The protests began weeks ago, sparked by the disputed presidential election results, but have since escalated into demands for the resignation of President Evo Morales.
At the heart of the miners' protests are concerns about job security, economic inequality, and a perceived lack of representation in the government.
