Neither Jaime Nebot, the former mayor of Guayaquil, nor Rafael Correa, the former president of the Republic, are members of the National Assembly, but they are the undisputed leaders of the political parties that, when the Legislative Assembly was installed on November 17, confirmed with facts the agreement with the ruling party of Daniel Nobo Azín, who will begin his national term on the 23rd. The two leaders spoke of ‘tampering with the judicial function’, in different senses, on their social networks.

Thus, the National Assembly’s board of directors was formed: Henry Kronfle as president, Viviana Veloz and Eckner Recalde as vice presidents.

As a warning or as sarcasm, it is a topic that has been put on the table and that keeps the warnings.

Politics should not be about personal interests or revenge, but should prioritize service and respect for the institutions and functions of the state. The leader’s task is to use his experience to accompany those he directs in order to ‘enable Ecuadorians to walk towards their prosperity’, writes Nebot on the social network Instagram.

In the same text, the Christian socialist emphasizes the duty of defending the people from injustice and abuse through rigorous supervision, “not related to circus performances, to the conduct of the judicial function.” Correa responded in X with the phrase ‘Nebot is talking about manipulation of the judicial branch’.

Who is Henry Kronfle, the new president of the National Assembly?

In the Assembly, co-leaders of the former president, from the Civil Revolution, predicted their interest in calling for the impeachment of prosecutor Diana Salazar; The new President of the Legislature, Henry Kronfle, offered unceasing work to respond to the demands of the citizens, and the President-elect expressed confidence that he “will know how to direct, command and adhere to constitutional norms for the benefit of Ecuadorians.”

Agreements for the benefit of the country are positive. Doubts cast a shadow over them, and the very talk of missteps causes insecurity. It is time for a mature policy for the real benefit of the citizens, who will appreciate action without bad practices, with impunity, with truth and justice. This is what is expected of the elected and their leaders. (OR)
