Quick Glance: Ecuadorean President Noboa seeks support for security measures in upcoming vote
- Ecuador's President Daniel Noboa is aiming for voter support for a range of security measures in a national referendum on Sunday to address the increasing violence that has garnered international attention.
- Noboa is urging voters to support joint police-military patrols, the extradition of wanted criminals, longer sentences for terrorism and murder, and other crimes to combat the rising violence attributed to drug gangs.
- Opinion polls suggest that voters are likely to support Noboa, 36, in the 11-question referendum, despite potential dampening of support due to recent power outages. Passing five of the measures would lead to constitutional modifications.
- Over the past decade, cocaine-smuggling gangs have spread across every corner of Latin America, transforming once peaceful nations like Ecuador into new battlefields, as indicated by security officials and diplomats.
