Luis Arce was sworn in as Bolivia's president

With his right hand on his chest, Luis Arce was sworn in on Sunday in the presence of leaders and representatives of states in the region. In his career, he was a civil servant at the Central Bank, taught at university and was Minister of Economy during the government of Evo Morales. The inauguration was made effective despite requests, such as from the Committee for Santa Cruz, that Arce did not take over while an audit of the electoral process is being carried out.
