Exiled Bolivian President Evo Morales had strong words for the U.S. when he recently sat down with Anadolu Agency for an exclusive interview.

He said when police and the armed forces joined a coup against his government late last year, he had no choice but to resign to avoid a deadly confrontation that would have costs lives.

The U.S. thinks it has "acquired the right to make a coup wherever there are progressive presidents and leftist governments" in the region, he said.

"The first thing President [Donald Trump] did in my resigning process was congratulate the [Bolivian] armed forces for their participation in the coup. And now the U.S. is the first to recognize the putschist Jeanine Anez, the dictatorship," he said.
