"Today, December 19, the blackouts come to an end after almost three months of power cuts, which at their most critical moment were up to 14 hours a day. It will be the end of three months of sacrifices and disruptions in the daily activities of Ecuadorians.
Days ago President Daniel Noboa said that his government has done "everything necessary so that, regardless of the climate conditions that affect us in the future, this is the last energy crisis that will hit Ecuador in this way."
However, seven industrial companies will continue to face restrictions, while the Turkish barge Murat Bey, which is already in the country, will be key to improving electricity supply.
📍 The Government has taken measures such as the arrival of this barge and agreements to stabilize the electricity network after the power generation crisis.
📍 In addition, the purchase of energy to the neighboring country Colombia was managed, demonstrating the existence of a bilateral relationship between the mandates Daniel Noboa and Gustavo Petro.
📍 As economic relief, households for these days already received the plates with the compensation offered by the Government. Those who consume up to 180 kilowatt/hour per month will only have to pay the tariff for other services. The benefit is for four months, by when everyone expects that the lack of electricity is already a problem solved.
This is how a time of darkness ends and a glimmer of light appears in the Ecuadorians who long for the country not to be harmed again by this problem that has suffered for years and for several governments has gone unnoticed."

23SEP26 #Ecuador 🇪🇨 "An analysis published by CNN en Español examines several Latin American presidents who maintain political ties with Donald Trump and who, after winning elections with radical rhetoric, face social, economic, or governance challenges.
Among the cases examined are Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa , along with Javier Milei in Argentina; José Antonio Kast in Chile; Rodrigo Paz in Bolivia; and Nayib Bukele in El Salvador. CNN also analyzes recently inaugurated presidents in Honduras, Peru, and Colombia.
The publication argues that these leaders capitalized on public discontent with traditional governments and parties by proposing economic adjustments, security measures, and confrontation with their adversaries. However, it posits that this electoral strategy faces limitations when it must translate into effective governance.
Ecuador: security under question
In the Ecuadorian case, CNN focuses part of its analysis on the security strategy promoted by Noboa.
The president declared the internal armed conflict in ...
16SEP26💯%Choneros🚀"On Sept. 16, under the direction of #SOUTHCOM, Joint Task Force Western Hemisphere (JTF-WHEM)
forces successfully interdicted a floating refueling station supporting illicit at-sea drug trafficking operations in the Eastern Pacific.
Intelligence confirmed the vessel's involvement with the Los Choneros violent narco-terrorist organization.
Individuals removed from the vessel have been transferred to Ecuadorian authorities. After clearing the vessel and disembarking the crew, U.S. forces sank it.
JTF-WHEM continues to conduct precise and professional operations to dismantle the logistical networks fueling narco-trafficking in the Western Hemisphere.
"Alongside our Ecuadorian partners, we are relentlessly pursuing narco-terrorists who prey on our citizens,
undermine hemispheric security, and leave death and suffering in their wake. This deliberate, lawful, and precise operation saves lives and makes our citizens—from Ecuador to the United States—safer." -

"It is an absurdity, it is laughable, to speak of such a
pending disaster as "The End of the World."
We are discussing the end of Humanity, or we are discussing the
end of Civilization, or we are perhaps even discussing
the end of some this or that Empire that we mistakenly
believe to identify with.
The end of the world will come when the sun
expands and engulfs it.
Now, is it truly a surprise that our discourse relates
economic tragedy with an ecological one?
That we actually behave as though a marked downturn in
the Market can somehow be compared to the death of Nature?
We are so enamored with our vastness and resource that we have forgotten the lark and the sparrow.
So I say, come armageddon. Come, you horsemen.
Let us speak these things no more."
