Reuters – Ecuador leader’s brother urges tolerance
Date: May 9, 2011
Fabricio Correa, brother and political opponent of Ecuador President Rafael Correa, discusses the referendum campaign and results:
Correa already has been cast as an autocrat by opponents after four years as president but Saturday’s vote looked set to endorse 10 reforms giving the executive greater control over the judiciary and media.
“They didn’t thrash us as they said, by four to one,” older brother Fabricio Correa told Reuters. “The goal was always to tell the president ‘You have to be tolerant, you have to listen … to those of us who think differently.'”
