The Archbishop of Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Cardinal Julio Terrazas Sandoval, reaffirmed this week his willingness to serve as a facilitator in the dialogue between Bolivian president Evo Morales' government and opposition leaders.
“The Church will be available as many times as necessary to help bring the two sides together,” the cardinal said upon arriving in the city of Cochabamba.
He reiterated his call to both sides to solve the crisis through dialogue. The situation facing the country requires reflection and evaluation, he added. “We must not let conflicts become worse,” the cardinal stated.
