lpv:translated text	"At a time when the leaders of the ΕU, at the recent summit in Brussels, are expressing their support for the 'democratically elected government of Bolivia' and are calling on the people to refrain from acts of violence, Sanchez de Lozada has submitted his resignation as president of the country and gone to Miami to seek refuge with his friends. The popular uprising in Bolivia, which claimed dozens of victims as a result of the violent bloody repression, was an outburst by the repressed: the workers, the farmers and the natives. It was a claim on their part for a place under the sun, their decision to defend the natural wealth of their country from plundering by foreign monopolies and the neo-colonialism of the USA. Once again the people are distinguishing themselves as the protagonist of history. Once again it is being proven that the adversary, however strong he may appear, is not invincible. Although the EP resolution contains a number of correct appraisals, it takes a rather neutral position towards the popular uprising. That is why we MEPs of the Communist Party of Greece abstained from the vote. At the same time, we express our solidarity with the people of Bolivia and the whole of Latin America and our steadfast conviction that the recent victory will not be the last."@en1
