(CNN) Bolivia's former President, Evo Morales, said that he is willing to return to the country and not run in the next election for the sake of peace and stability if his resignation is accepted.

Morales, who was in power for nearly 14 years, accepted an offer of political asylum from Mexico after resigning Sunday amid allegations of "serious irregularities" during last month's election and pressure from the country's armed forces.

Morales faced mounting protests in the aftermath of the October 20 vote as demonstrators and the Bolivian opposition accused electoral authorities of manipulating the vote count in favor of the incumbent.

He denied the allegations and declared himself the winner, but was eventually forced to step down before leaving the country.

Speaking to CNNE's Carmen Aristegui in Mexico City on Friday, Morales said if the country's National Assembly accepts his formal resignation he will return to the country.
