First modification:
Insecurity cases rebound in Ecuador. In the most recent episode, an explosive device was detonated in a popular neighborhood in the city of Guayaquil, the country’s main port. In the event, five people lost their lives and another 16 were injured. President Guillermo Lasso declared a state of emergency, but many criticize the measure, alleging that it does not solve the root problem. How can Ecuador put a stop to this wave of violence? We analyze it in our program.
The increase in criminal groups and disputes between them over drug trafficking is part of the root problem related to violence in Ecuador.
What role does Guayaquil play in the link of the distribution routes of the drug cartels? How permeated is drug trafficking in citizen dynamics? What do the authorities and the Police say? When did the main port of Ecuador in the Pacific become an important point of drug trafficking and crime? We analyze it in this edition of El Debate together with our guests:
– Carla Álvarez Velasco, specialist in security issues.
– Carolina Andrade, political and security and intelligence analyst.
