Lugo
On 23 June 2012, we learn that the president of Paraguay, Fernando Lugo, has been toppled in a coup and replaced by Federico Franco.
Lugo had made promises of agrarian reform to help the country's many poor and landless people.
On 15 June 2012, 17 people were killed in a clash between landless farmers and the police who were trying to evict them (some sources consider that all this was taken as a pretext to expel Lugo)[30]
Venezuela's Foreign Minister calls the toppling of Lugo a "new type of coup."
According to Wayne Madsen, it may be Obama's second successful coup against a progressive leader in Latin America; the first was Honduras. ( http://www.waynemadsenreport.com/ )
"The Mormons are in Paraguay.
"No doubt he's a Sabbatean, just pretending to be a Catholic." (Twelfth Bough: the point B list)

The ousting of Paraguay's president has sparked criticism
"This goes beyond Fernando Lugo. It goes beyond Paraguay. It's about true democracy for all of our America," said Ecuador's leftist president, Rafael Correa, adding that his government will not recognize any government in Paraguay other than Lugo's.
In Argentina, the government of President Cristina Fernandez said it "is not going to validate the coup d'etat that just occurred" in Paraguay.

Bolivian President Evo Morales also called it a coup.
Chilean Foreign Minister Alfredo Moreno said "we are worried" that Lugo's ouster "did not fulfill the minimum standards of due process and the legitimate defense that any person deserves." He said his country would decide its position toward the new Paraguayan government in the coming days.
