    SUBJECT: ECUADORIANS SUPPORT CORREA BUT WANT FARC OUT

    Classified By: DCM Jefferson Brown for Reasons 1.4 (b&d)

    ¶1.  (SBU) Summary.  A day after President Correa announced
    that Ecuador cut diplomatic relations with Colombia, the
    Constituent Assembly suspended its normal business to discuss
    the Colombian incursion.  The Assembly is expected to adopt a
    resolution condemning the Colombian incursion.  The text is
    also expected to rebuke the United States for allegedly
    assisting Colombia in the operation.  Amidst much nationalist
    rhetoric in favor of Correa's position of protesting the
    violation of Ecuadorian sovereignty, some opposition members
    of the Assembly and other commentators called for the GOE to
    focus on expelling the FARC, and others called for an
    investigation into the Colombian accusations of GOE ties with
    the FARC.  End Summary.
    ¶2.  (SBU) With President Correa traveling in the region and
    FM Salvador at the OAS on March 4, attention shifted to the
    Constituent Assembly.  The Constituent Assembly put aside its
    constitutional drafting on March 4 to discuss the Colombian
    incursion, and has announced that it would adopt a resolution
    criticizing the GOC.  Minister of Internal and External
    Security Gustavo Larrea visited the Assembly the morning of
    March 4 to explain the details of the incursion, which
    included charts and lasted over two hours.

    ¶3.  (C) According to a statement by Cesar Rodriguez,
    President of the legislative committee, the resolution will
    include two main components: an exhortation to Latin American
    countries and to the world to respect peace, and a
    repudiation of the violation of national sovereignty.
    Patriotic Society Party (PSP) Assembly member Fausto Lupero
    told us that the resolution also includes language critical
    of U.S. assistance to the Colombian military operation.

    ¶4.  (SBU) Alberto Acosta, President of the Assembly, appeared
    to express the opinion of the majority of Assembly members.
    He called the Colombian action "unacceptable" but added that
    this is also true of the presence of any "irregular force" in
    Ecuador.  Proud and Sovereign Fatherland (PAIS) bloc members
    backed the GOE's statement denying any inappropriate ties
    between the Executive branch and the FARC.

    ¶5.  (SBU) The opposition blocs demanded further explanation
    of interaction between the GOE and the FARC.  Galo Lara of
    the PSP questioned, "How can the Assembly say no to an
    American base (sic) but have armed insurgents sleep in their
    pajamas in Ecuador as if it were their home?"  Cesar Rohon of
    the Social Christian Party (PSC) and Mae Montano of the New
    Option movement (UNO) insisted that the Colombian accusations
    warrant investigation and that the GOE not only direct its
    criticism at the Colombian military but also at the FARC.
    Rafael Esteves, ex-PSP member, provided a letter to Acosta
    requesting the replacement of Minister of Defense, Wellington
    Sandoval, declaring that "Intelligence and the Armed Forces
    should have known about and provided a warning about the
    presence of the FARC."

    ¶6.  (SBU) During the Assembly discussion, members also
    questioned the U.S. role in the Colombian military operation.
     Eduardo Zambrano asked why "information supplied via
    satellite is used for an attack on Ecuadorian soil, but can't
    be used to locate and eradicate coca fields," and said that
    it is time to rid Ecuador of the presence of foreign troops
    at Manta.  Pedro de la Cruz was among those calling for an
    investigation of the U.S. "base" in Manta.

    ¶7.  (SBU) Before departing Ecuador, President Correa spoke in
    a national broadcast on the evening of March 3 to explain to
    the Ecuadorian people why the GOE had cut diplomatic
    relations with Colombian and to calm concerns about travel
    between the two countries.  He asserted that the incursion
    occurred at a time when the GOE was negotiating the released
    of FARC-held hostages, and that Uribe was aware of this.
    Minister Larrea called Colombian accusations about FARC links
    a "smoke screen" attempt by the GOC to divert attention from
    its incursion into Ecuadorian sovereignty.

    ¶8.  (U) A poll taken on March 3 in Ecuador by Cedatos Gallup
    International and the National Consulting Center of Colombia,
    showed that 80 percent of respondents support President
    Correa's position, when asked about the incursion, the
    resulting deaths of Reyes and other FARC members, as well as
    Correa's protest regarding the lack of respect to Ecuadorian
    sovereignty.
