Ecuadorian President Warns Of Possible 'CIA Attack' Before Elections -- RT

Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa has said the CIA may try to kill him prior to upcoming elections. Citing reports of a plot to “destabilize the region,” Correa said the threats were “credible,” given the history of US involvement in Latin America.

­Correa alluded to reports by Chilean journalist Patricio Mery Bell, who allegedly passed on information to the Ecuadorian government that President Correa’s life was “under threat” by a CIA plot.

“There are many cases of [the CIA] interfering” in Latin American affairs, Correa said during a campaign tour in the coastal province of Guayas. “These are credible [reports] because this has happened before in Latin America.”

The head of the US diplomatic mission in Quito, Adam Nann, responded to Bell's claims by saying that Washington “would never get involved” in Ecuador's electoral process.

My Comment:
So a Chilean journalist has evidence of a plot .... but does not provide any. RT is a Russian news service .... even they are mocking this report. But such is the state of affairs in Ecuador.

Update: Not to be outdone .... Bolivia is now saying that there is a CIA plot against it's leader.
