Recent overruling of the changes to the Constitution proposed by President Hugo Chávez in the ballot boxes show that the Venezuelan government is anything but totalitarian, said on Wednesday Ecuadorian Acting Minister of Governmental Affairs Fernando Bustamante.
The minister noted that Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa was not an imitator of his Venezuelan counterpart.
"We regret that a friend ruler suffered such a defeat. However, we are pleased to realize that the Venezuelan government proved to be anything but totalitarian; because it suffered a defeat, because its power proved to be less than widespread," he said, AP quoted.
The official told TV network Teleamazonas that it is clear that there is in Venezuela "a democracy; that all the accusations made in the sense that it had stopped being a democracy are unfounded."
Oh it will take quite a while to turn Venezuela into a Cuba, but as long as communists run the country it will just get worse and worse. Chavez is determined.

ReplyDeleteWhat is communism?
At any rate, the most miserable country on the planet seems to be the U.S., where people cannot read, cannot find their own country on a map and shoot each other for fun in the shopping mall - so whatever anyone has to offer it has got to be better than U.S. stupidism...

ReplyDeleteU mean like France, Norway, Sweden, and Belgium? How terrible!! Maybe for you only Europeans are allowed to be Socialist?
Cuba is not getting worse and worse ... let's see how the US would fair under similar economic sanctions. MGIH, we'd be in a constant state of anarchy and chaos.
Why aren't there economic sanctions imposed on those Euro-Socialists? Oh, that's right. Sanctions are only for those "brownie" peoples.
What's the update on Ecuador?
