Paz Zamora first served as Vicepresident of the Republic with his uncle Víctor Paz Estenssoro from 1982 to 1984. On August 5, 1989 he was proclaimed President by the Congress in spite of finishing in third place in the general elections held on May 7 that year, thanks to the political support received from the rightist and second most voted candidate, Hugo Banzer, an old arch-foe of him by the time Banzer ruled the country as a military dictator, in the 70s. By helping Paz Zamora, Banzer averted the proclamation of Gonzalo Sánchez de Lozada, who had won the direct elections but below the required 50% threshold.
