Quito, (Prensa Latina) The new term of Ecuador's National Assembly began on May 14, when the 137 members of the highest legislative body, elected in the general elections last February, were sworn in.
The Parliament was formed by 49 representatives of Unión por la Esperanza, 25 of Pachakutik, 18 of Izquierda Democrática, 16 of Partido Social Cristiano and allies, 12 of the ruling CREO and 17 of minority groups, in addition to the independents.
However, the plenary has not been able to advance in its work due to delays in the sessions due to disagreements between the parties, which for some is a preview of what could be a difficult period.

The Divided Left in Ecuador

Ecuador has been governed by Alianza País for fourteen years. In the party’s first decade in power, from 2007 to 2017, its government was led by President Rafael Correa, one of the emblematic figures of the Pink Tide of left-wing governments across Latin America. When Correa left office, amid economic decline and charges of authoritarianism, he was succeeded by his former vice president, Lenín Moreno. It was supposed to be a smooth transition, but Moreno soon clashed with his predecessor: he pursued corruption cases against Correa and deepened austerity policies his predecessor had initiated. In October 2019, after the announcement of an increase in fuel prices, a protest movement erupted. Then, early in 2020, Ecuador became the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak in Latin America. By April, bodies were being left in the street in Guayaquil, the country’s most populous city.
