Correa Denounces
Foreign Destabilization Campaign
QUITO - Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa
has warned he has reports that certain
opposition groups are receiving funds from
abroad as part of a campaign to destabilize
the government of the Citizen's Revolution.
"We have evidence that some groups are
financed by foreign countries and we have
evidence of the connections", assured Correa
in an exclusive interview with El Ciudadano
daily, in which he denounces those sectors
have "permanent conspiracy eagerness".
According to the leader, the strategy of
these groups, which do not win the elections
but want to retain power, is not to face us
at the polls as the democratic spirit would
say, but to destabilize the country.
However, those attempts will bump into
popular support that this country has
counted on and has allowed it to defeat the
opposition easily in six consecutive
elections.
"The basis of our program was the new
Constitution to bury neoliberalism, and
there it is. Then, the attention to social
sectors, and there it is; the rescue of
strategic sectors and the recovery of our
resources with a sovereignty strategy and
there it is", he stated.
"The path towards development is hard and it
can not be overnight because it involves
education and cultural change, which are
things that take some time. At least we have
moved fast and on the right direction",
stressed Correa.
