He revealed his true intentions: Johnny Fernández made evident his desire to reorganize Masismo.

The leader of Unidad Cívica Solidaridad (UCS), Jhonny Fernández, met at his home with Félix Patzi and envoys from Andrónico Rodríguez and Eva Copa. The meeting was secretive and lasted about two hours, according to reports from local media. Although there are no official confirmations regarding all attendees, the intention to reorganize sectors close to masismo is already evident. During a press conference, Fernández did not rule out withdrawing his presidential candidacy if that helps achieve effective unity. He stated that the main goal is to win in the first round. "There is no room for selfishness here," he said, leaving the door open to his resignation. The mayor of Santa Cruz reiterated that the most important thing is to respond to the call to reunify the socialist factions. His change in discourse marks a turning point compared to his role in 2020, when he was an ally of Creemos. The result of the meeting was the preliminary design of the so-called "Frente de Unidad Popular". Although there are no decisions regarding the tickets, everyone agrees that Andrónico is the figure with the greatest projection. "Andrónico's candidacy is not up for discussion," Patzi assured. Fernández added that the senator has the profile of a first-round winner. Regarding the meeting, Fernández stated that the technical committees are still working in La Paz. They are evaluating the progress of each working group, and a final statement is expected by June 6. On that day, the candidacies will be officially announced, and it will be determined who continues and who withdraws. For now, UCS doesn't have a presidential ticket or finalized lists of legislators. Everything will depend on the final decisions made in high-level meetings. The possibility of a single candidacy in the popular social bloc is also generating tension within "evismo." Former minister Teresa Morales publicly denounced that a "coalition against the people" is being formed. She pointed directly to Rodríguez, Copa, Patzi, and Fernández as those responsible for blocking the "process of change". For Morales, this articulation seeks to defend Luis Arce and exclude Evo Morales.
