Not quite going to plan though. Few countries have recognised the illegitimate government. None of the neighbours who have with drawn their ambassadors and shunned the new 'President' in public. :hobbyhorse:
Quote:Ousted Paraguay president to establish parallel cabinet
Former Paraguayan President Fernando Lugo will set up a parallel cabinet with ministers loyal to him, Augusto Dos Santos, the country's former minister of social communication said. Lugo said he would resign from his position as president of regional bloc UNASUR, but would try to upstage the country's new leaders at an upcoming summit. He also called Paraguay's new government "bogus" and said it had "no legitimacy." Lugo was ousted by the country's Senate Friday, prompting a cascade of negative reactions from Paraguay's neighbors, with many leaders saying they will not recognize the new government.
