Correa warns Colombia; challenges Uribe to see who is lying.
Advertisements [?]



Don't know if this has been posted. If not, Correa gave an interview to an Ecuadoran TV station yesterday (Sunday) in which he said that any further attack by Colombia would be met with a military response (as in war). He said he would not permit any incursion by the Colombian military into Ecuadoran territory.

"There is no other way out, given that the first time (Colombian attack of March 1, 2008) we took the diplomatic route before the Organization of American States; Colombia was totally condemned but it continues with the position of (former defense minister Jose Manuel) Santos, who had a doctrine of preventive war."

Correa said the election of Santos to the presidency would be "very dangerous," but that is a decision for the Colombian people.

Correa also challenged Uribe to submit to a lie-detector test "so we can see which of the two of us has ties to the FARC or with the narco-traffic." :rofl:
