Through a message posted on his Twitter account, Morales replied to the spokesmen for the self-proclaimed regime, who said they provided collaboration to the kids .

El gobierno de facto miente, afirmó que ayudó a salir de #Bolivia a mis hijos Evaliz y Álvaro, cuando en realidad les dificultó su salida. Denuncio que la Policía retuvo a mis hijos en el aeropuerto sometiéndolos a un interrogatorio de 40 minutos. — Evo Morales Ayma (@evoespueblo) November 25, 2019

“The de facto government lies, said it helped my kids Evaliz and Álvaro to leave Bolivia, when it really made it difficult for them to leave. I report that the police held my children at the airport by subjecting them to a 40-minute interrogation,” Morales wrote.

It is worth remembering that since the middle of the month of November, and after the coup d’etat, the Andean president has been granted asylum in Mexico.
