“I know very well what I am facing for saying this, my dear colleagues. More persecutions, requests for political trials, more defamations, and personal threats may come. I have been accused of everything, and they have not been able to prove anything because I have done nothing wrong. But I know they do not need evidence to continue attacking me until they finally destroy me,” Glas says in a statement addressed to the public as well as President Lenin Moreno.
Tuesday, Brazilian newspaper O’Globo disclosed an audio in which a conversation is heard between an Odebrecht official and former Comptroller General Carlos Pólit, in which it is ensured that Glas asked for money to the Brazilian company.
In his Twitter account, the Vice President published a statement in which he questions Moreno’s statements in recent days, including criticism of the government of his predecessor Rafael Correa for the foreign debt.
For the vice president, Moreno’s regime “is orchestrating the return of the old country through the distribution of state resources. A propitious scenario for institutionalized corruption is being built.” (I)
