Correa rejects a referendum on indefinite reelection issue

Last Tuesday on his usual discussion with Guayaquil media, President Rafael Correa criticized the idea of “wanting to impose a referendum” when the indefinite reelection issue “clearly requires an amendment.”

“We live in a state of law, not of opinion,” said the president, while criticizing the insistence of certain media and a political sector of calling a referendum.

However, despite his strong stance, Correa said the last word on the decision lies with the Constitutional Court, which must choose whether the issue of indefinite reelection requires a referendum or a constitutional amendment.

Moreover, the president stressed once again that his possible candidacy in 2017 will depend on the position of the political opposition and the media.
