AP would make a reelection reform through the Assembly

Alianza PAIS (AP) expects to approve a constitutional reelection reform for the presidential position and other charges, taking advantage from the legislative majority that possesses as a block.

Yesterday afternoon, the block held a workshop on the Training Center of the Comptroller, with the purpose to reach a resolution on the subject.

Inside Alianza PAIS there are coincidences between the members of the party in doing an amendment that takes about a year and does not require a referendum. According to the Constitution, to achieve this, it is required 92 votes in favor in a plenary session of the Assembly,

Meanwhile, President Rafael Correa stated yesterday that all possibilities are open on this issue, and pointed out that even if an “amendment” is done, he would not discard a referendum.
