Shakeup in Paraguayan Military

Only a day after dismissing fears of a possible coup, President of Paraguay Fernando Lugo dismissed the nation's top military leaders and replaced them. The commanders of the Army, Navy and Air Force were replaced with new ones who will take command once approved by the Paraguayan legislature. Lugo is still popular with the poor but his grip on the nation is slipping, as the opposition has gained enough power to threaten him with impeachment.
