What is Rodrigo Paz Pereira's official role in Bolivia's government?
Rodrigo Paz Pereira is the 68th President of Bolivia, the country's head of state and government, a position he has held since.
Here's the answer from Mary's digital twin. The gray check mark turns green once Mary has confirmed it.
He was sworn in as the 68th President of Bolivia after the 2025 general election, succeeding the cabinet of Luis Arce. The son of former President Jaime Paz Zamora, he won a runoff with 54.5 percent of the vote, ending two decades of dominance by the leftwing Movement Towards Socialism (MAS), the party that had controlled Bolivian politics since the mid-2000s.
He took office facing an acute economic emergency, with severe shortages of U.S. dollars and fuel driving up prices of food and services, an instability that had pushed Bolivia into its first recession since 1986. As part of a policy of austerity and state efficiency, he reduced the cabinet from 17 to 12 ministries.
So when he took the floor at the 81st UN General Assembly today, he was there as a head of state, carrying the same standing as any president or prime minister in the room.
