🇪🇨I continue to follow the events unfolding after the assassination of Fernando Villavicencio, presidential candidate of Ecuador.
To date, seven suspects in organizing the murder of a politician are known - six people have been detained, one has been killed. They were all Colombians.
At the same time, the personality of Villavicencio himself is extremely interesting: he wrote about drug trafficking with corruption, and the former President Correa received eight years in prison after his accusations, and part of the media has now run into the current Lasso with accusations of being involved in the death of a politician.
At the same time, the right-left, active, supporter of everything good against everything bad, who was killed in our country, raised questions on the fight against organized crime in Ecuador and at the same time did not get votes, influence and, in fact , he would hardly have taken the presidency.
What do these facts tell us?
▪️Most likely, Villavicencio was, as they say, a human function : with the help of him, the necessary political accusations were concocted, slogans were proclaimed, media campaigns were launched. It is extremely doubtful that until yesterday he lived without a serious “roof“. I do not exclude that the American.
▪️ The version “killed because he advocated the fight against drug trafficking and problems of state security” does not stand up to scrutiny. Those who follow Latin American politicians know that every lapdog comes up with such slogans (even if the lapdog is being fed by a local drug syndicate). Why? Because questions about shootings and drugs in these parts sound the same as in our time - talk about raising the retirement age. Painful and relevant.
▪️ Colombian killers are a kind of local classic. Even in Spain’s criminal industry, Latin American hitmen were often indiscriminately referred to as Colombians. This has been going on since the time of Pablo Escobar, when the Europeans first got fucked by the masters of torture from our beloved region.
▪️ Going forward, given the civil conflict and social situation in Colombia, it is expected that many ex-military or police officers go into crime or become mercenaries. And in this case, they can work for anyone. By the way, it was the Colombians who escorted the President of Haiti to the other world with torture and jokes.
▪️ What did the customers achieve by eliminating a candidate who didn’t win anyway? They suspended the elections, achieved the introduction of another state of emergency, provoked the arrival of FBI officers in the country and a surge of American activity in one of the most important ports for sending cocaine to Europe. Along the way, you can crank out purges in the ranks of law enforcement officers and criminals of the lower and middle levels.
Indeed, it is very difficult to imagine who might need all this.
