It is being reported that backed by a broad leftist coalition Andrés Arauz has easily won the first round of the Sunday February 7 presidential elections – however apparently coming up short of the 40% needed for a first round victory.  Most outlets are reporting that it is too early to tell whether he will face an ecologist with questionable ties to US foreign policy goals Yaku Pérez who ran as an anti-mining candidate or Guillermo Lasso a pro-business right wing neo liberal candidate in the run off elections on April 11.

Between now and April 11, Ecuador will be vulnerable to a USA / CIA backed effort to attempt to influence the results of the run off and to make preparations to launch destabilization should Arauz prevail>

It is up to us IN THE BELLY OF THE BEAST to organize committees and actions demanding US hands off the electoral process and no to US sabotage and intervention in Ecuador!

Let’s build a movement, coalition or committee to oppose US intervention and to support the struggles of the Ecuadorean people reeling from the depraved indifference homicide that has led to 1000s of COVID-19 casualties and the IMF backed austerity due to the misleadership of traitor Lenin Moreno.

Excerpting from call to action:

“NO US, IMF, OR OAS INTERFERENCE IN ECUADOR’S ELECTIONS THIS SUNDAY: THE VOTE MUST GO ON!!

Ecuador’s outgoing President Lenin Moreno has traveled to Washington DC to meet with officials from the White House, the International Monetary Fund, and the Organization of American States as the Ecuadorian people prepare for national elections on Sunday. Polls indicate that Leftist presidential candidate Andrés Arauz is widely expected to win; but former President Rafael Correa has alerted the country and the world to credible speculations that Moreno is in the United States to discuss canceling the elections. Meanwhile, international organizations including the OAS are in Ecuador acting as observers. In the same capacity, the OAS led the race to denounce the election of Evo Morales in 2019, justifying a right-wing coup. It has since been shown conclusively that that vote was not fraudulent.  Currently, the OAS is under investigation for its role in the coup. Fortunately, after months of chaos and brutal repression, Bolivia’s popular forces regained power. We must not allow these same institutions of interference to do to Ecuador what they tried to do to Bolivia.”
