The political crisis in Ecuador deepens with the declaration of national resistance by the Confederation of Indigenous Peoples and Nationalities, CONAIE. Eight police officers and several journalists remain inside the Agora of the House of Ecuadorian Culture, where the permanent assembly of this organization is in session, while the government affirms that they are being kidnapped.
Mothers of Plaza de Mayo sympathize
The president and co-founder of the social movement of Argentina Mothers of Plaza de Mayo, Hebe de Bonafini, extended her support and solidarity towards the people of Ecuador, after the economic reform of the president of that nation, Lenín Moreno, and the strong police repression employed against him. De Bonafini expressed his position through a video on the social network Twitter. In the publication he asked the different security forces of the Ecuadorian State to cease repression against the people. «To the Ecuadorian repressive forces, on behalf of the mothers of the world, stop repressing, even if they repress the peoples of the world, we are not willing to let ourselves be overwhelmed. Stop killing young people! ”Hebe de Bonafini urged.
Likewise, the president of Mothers of Plaza de Mayo called on the Ecuadorian community to remain on the street in a fight to defend their rights and the stability of their land. «To you Ecuadorian colleagues, do not abandon the streets, squares, routes, which are ours, defend the country, that women cover their heads with white scarves, we will not let ourselves die or kill, no matter how many days we have than occupy the streets, ”he said.
