🚨El 6 de marzo, el gobierno de Noboa suspendió a @RC5Oficial — el movimiento político más grande de Ecuador — del registro electoral por 9 meses. El plazo coincide exactamente con la fecha límite de inscripción de candidatos para las elecciones locales de 2027. Esto es lawfare🧵
🚨On March 6, Ecuador's Noboa government suspended @RC5Oficial, Ecuador's largest political movement, from the electoral registry for 9 months, covering the registration deadline for 2027 elections. This is lawfare. We stand in full solidarity with RC and the Ecuadorian people🧵
“The reduction of the Monroe Doctrine to coercion and plunder is, despite Trump’s and Hegseth’s assertions to the contrary, a sign of weakness, of a regional hegemon that can’t effectively organise its hinterlands.” https://t.co/PeCcJwscOx
Please contact Members of Congress at 202-224-3121 to let them know you oppose this criminal action.
In solidarity,

The Trump administration wants to gain control of Venezuela’s oil reserves, which are currently the largest in the world. We ask you to join us in repudiating the U.S. government’s attacks on Venezuela and kidnapping of Maduro and Flores.
The Trump administration has described these attacks as a “police action.” They are not. They are illegal actions and the latest in a long and sordid history of U.S. intervention in Latin America. They violate Venezuela’s national sovereignty, international law, and the UN Charte
HPAD Condemns US Attack on Venezuela
Historians for Peace and Democracy unequivocally condemns the U.S. government’s January 3, 2026, military strikes on Venezuela and kidnapping of President Nicolás Maduro and Cilia Flores, his wife, whose whereabouts are currently unknown.
Ecuador resoundingly rejects Noboa's rightward turn: "In effect, the referendum served as a public vote of no confidence in a conservative government closely aligned with the Donald Trump administration."
