19JUN24- "Protests in the Ecuadorian horizon!!!
This June 19, 2024, leaders of union groups and teachers announced that they will take to the streets on July 4.

👉 The FUT will take to the streets on July 4 to protest against the elimination of subsidies

The United Workers Front (FUT) assures that the increase of only USD 0.26 in Extra and Ecopaís gasoline is a 'deception' by Daniel Noboa's government.

👉 March of social groups against the increase in extra gasoline prices and ecopaís will be on July 4

The union unions grouped in the United Workers Front (FUT) announce protests against the government of Daniel Noboa Azín to demand that the increase in the prices of extra gasoline and ecopaís by $0.26 be reversed.

The government of President Daniel Noboa announced that a band system will be applied and that the cost of gasoline could vary depending on international crude oil prices.

The president of the FUT, José Villavicencio, announced the de facto measure for which they are holding conversations with social and indigenous organizations.

The Government “believes that we are idiots,” Villavicencio reproached and demanded that the subsidies be eliminated but for the economic sectors that benefit from them and from tax exemptions.

”Those affected by this increase will be the people and the middle sector, because gasoline goes up and everything goes up. Inflation and the cost of living are going to rise,” said Villavicencio, and called on other social groups to the “great day” of protests.

Edwin Bedoya, leader of the Ecuadorian Confederation of Unitary Class Organizations of Workers (Cedocut), commented that these days citizens will be motivated to mobilize, because the compensation offered by the regime "does not generate employment."

The Government has announced that a compensation system will be applied to transporters that is in the process of design and implementation."
