Ecuador: Mass Rally Backs Government Measures
- 9 years ago
Tens of thousands of Ecuadorans are rallying today in Quito in support of the government's proposed inheritance tax and to counter right-wing protests that many feel are aimed at destabilizing the country. The right-wing opposition will hold a national protest on Wednesday in 35 cities across the country. Supporters of the Citizens' Revolution will also rally on Wednesday in support of the fiscal measures aimed at a more equitable distribution of wealth. Liz Scherffius reports from Quito. teleSUR
