Ecuador Slams Sprays, Coca Lies
As if it weren´t enough to douse it with toxic sprays, Ecuador is currently the target of a disinformation campaign by the Colombian government, Defense Minister Marcelo Delgado affirmed on Wednesday.

In declarations to a national TV channel, Delgado noted that Bogota lied when it tried to misinform the public over the existence of 15 hectares of coca leaf crops along the northern border area and ruled out the presence of Colombian infiltrators in this nation.

He said that a team of national reporters are moving to the common border to verify the untruths of Colombian police chief Gen. Jorge Castro.

The minister also warned that to present complaints there are corresponding entities such as the Border Bi-national Committee.

Concerning the apparent presence of leaders of Colombian groups in Ecuador, Delgado pointed out this kind of information takes place just when Bogota is going through a critical situation.

The official ratified the national position to neither involve the country in the Colombia Plan nor participate in actions or joint military activities with its neighbor.
