Correa assured that his motivated are many more than his opponents.
The president of Ecuador, Rafael Correa, summoned his supporters this Saturday to appear before the Executive headquarters next Wednesday, the same day that some workers’ organizations plan to demonstrate against the labor policy of the Ecuadorian government.
“If on Wednesday they are 3,000, we will be 30,000 in the Plaza Grande. All invited to the Plaza Grande, with joy, it will be a musical festival,” Correa exclaimed in his weekly work report.
The president specified that in that meeting he intervened together with union leaders, workers and teachers “to tell Ecuador and the world ‘we are more, we are many more’.”
Trade union and peasant organizations in Ecuador announced a few days ago the call for the Mobilization Day for next September 17 in defense, among others, of workers’ rights.
“They do not understand that the country has changed, they do not understand that this is the country of the citizen revolution and those tactics of the party, of the stone throwers are no more. We are going to listen to everyone, but we are going to make the decisions with the legitimacy democracy that we have”, stressed the president.
