It’s a different leader of Ecuador. Assuming a consistent position is like assuming consistency between the Obama and Trump administrations. Unrealistic expectation from a past that no longer exists.
- the_af 7y agoI agree, but it's a bit more complex than that. Obama and Trump are officially political enemies and stand for different visions for the US. In contrast, Lenin Moreno (current president of Ecuador) was the political succesor of Rafael Correa (previous president) and was in line with Correa's policies... until after being elected. He then turned around many of Correa's policies and is seen as a traitor by the latter. This is more as if Hillary had won (ok, I know, not a perfect analogy!) and afterwards tore down everything Obama stood for.
