The armed forces were no longer the mediators between the people and the government, as it had been since 1986, when they prevented a bloody outcome between the protests and the government of Abdala Bucaram, this was repeated in 2000, when the protests overthrew Jamil Mahuad, and finally they were a mediator between the government of Colonel Lucio Gutiérrez. But in 2019, their role changed and together with the police, they killed more than a dozen people protesting against the Moreno government.
This is because there was a direct incidence of the United States Embassy, which thanks to agreements between Mike Pompeo and Lenín Moreno, which, in violation of Article 4 of the Constitution, ceded two military bases to the US Army, in Manta and in Galapagos, from where you were taken in 1946, by Velasco Ibarra, for the collaboration of the United States in the invasion of Ecuador in 1941, by the Peruvian army. At that time Ecuador allowed a base in Galapagos
This agreement between Pompeo and Moreno also allowed the US army to bring soldiers every 15 days, who in theory would coordinate with the Ecuadorian army, to stop drug trafficking, but in reality it became a way of controlling the army, for which it placed in the Ministry of Defense with great harmony with the US Embassy, which did not shake its hand to suppress the October protests. In the Gutiérrez fall, there was only one fatality and it was enough for the end.
It is a fact that the armed forces in our Hispanic countries have served to fight each other, they are a great economic burden in our countries, and a danger to the population when there are protests. The history of America is a long history of massacres caused by the armies of our countries and of horrible military dictatorships. For Ecuador, the weight of its army is an unnecessary necessity, since its work can be replaced by blue helmets, and the police officers can do better the work that the army now does, without the need to maintain fighter jets, submarines, and military equipment. War that need highly trained personnel and both equipment and training consumes huge sums of money from the country, and that is not compensated. The innovation of defense and attack weapons, and their enormous costs can liquidate the economy of our Latin American countries and greatly benefit the US war industry.
The objective of the United States, since World War II, is to prevent hostile armies in the world from becoming a government, as was Hitler.
But Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela now have governments of hostile armies to the USA, because dictators such as Basitata or Somosa were imposed in those countries and unleashed the Cuban and Sandinista revolutions, and in Venezuela a coup was attempted against Chavez, and numerous attempts to overthrow Maduro, like the coup in Bolivia, which highlights the so-called North American interventionism, which is why we have dictators and armies for or against the USA
Latin America now demands that the USA not do to our countries what they would not like it to do to them. They would not like to have governments in the USA, imposed by the Latin American countries by force, deceitful electoral campaigns, murky elections or through coups as occurred in Bolivia, to remove Evo Morales from the elections.
In Ecuador, the US Embassy has had so many interventionist actions in the last 4 years, especially against Correa and the runners, that it is evident to us that Moreno is a puppet of Moreno, and surely all the candidates, except Araúz, who are They will submit to the US embassy, although it is possible for Yaky Pérez, he is also reluctant, but it is quite clear that Guillermo Lasso and all the other candidates are not going to dare to do anything that bothers the US.
Nor are they going to dare to remove the marines from the bases of Manta and Galapagos, or to reduce their authority in the Ministry of Defense, Government or in the Ecuadorian justice system.
The United States is very uncomfortable with Correa's relationship with Julián Assange, or with Russia, which allowed him to do a program on Russian state television RT, called Conversing with Correa, now Correa's visit to Venezuela to watch the elections, as a guest Maduro and his statements that blame the US bloc on Venezuela as the cause of that country's humanitarian disaster.
At the moment, the chances that the US army and its government will influence the next elections against the correistas is much less, thanks to Trump's defeat and his departure before the elections in Ecuador, are important factors to justify the possibilities. for Araúz to win in a single round.
