White House National Security Council Strategic Communications Coordinator John Kirby said the United States does not intend to send troops to resolve the situation. This was reported by TASS.
“I’m not going to talk about the possibility of bringing in American troops or anything like that. “We don’t have any plans about this,” he said.
But he noted that American officials are ready to talk with Ecuadorian officials “about what kind of assistance they might need in conducting investigations or similar issues.”
Previously, Bloomberg reported that unrest in Ecuador could negatively affect the country’s President Daniel Noboa’s policy of reducing the national debt and pulling the state out of the economic crisis. Noboa, who had recently become president, was trying to cope with the financial crisis and secure financing from creditors “when gang violence broke out.”
