The Rise of the Far Right in Latin America Threatens Sexual and Reproductive Rights
"In recent years, feminist and anti-patriarchal organizations in Latin America have sounded the alarm over government actions that threaten to further erode the fundamental rights of women and gender-nonconforming individuals in the region, while observing the rise of far-right groups that seek to influence public policy by orchestrating disinformation campaigns and smear campaigns against feminist organizations.
The electoral victories of the far right in the region have accelerated this encroachment, bringing members of anti-rights movements into state structures, from where they have facilitated the shutdown of programs and the ideological transformation of institutions. This onslaught has been particularly aimed at undoing the achievements of movements for women’s sexual and reproductive freedoms."

"“Zero Accountability”: Ecuadorian Prosecutor Assassinated While Investigating U.S. Boat Strikes
(video)
U.S. boat strikes across the Caribbean and eastern Pacific have killed at least 221 people since September, while the Trump administration has provided no evidence linking the vessels or their passengers to drug trafficking. Ecuadorian prosecutor Alexandra Bravo was fatally shot on June 14 by a hitman in the city of Manta. Bravo had been investigating U.S. strikes on three Ecuadorian boats in which 36 passengers survived, many of them recounting alleged torture by American gunmen in U.S. military uniforms aboard a U.S.-flagged patrol ship.
The allegations of U.S. boat strikes and torture Bravo was investigating “are a reflection of the growing U.S.-backed military dictatorship in Ecuador,” says Camila Lourdes Galarza, an investigative journalist and labor organizer based in Quito. Lourdes Galarza says that during Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa’s reelection last year, former Blackwater mercenaries patrolled voting sites at gunpoint."

"#Canadian #mining and oil companies in #Ecuador are linked to serious #humanrightsviolations, including poisoning freshwater sources and trampling #Indigenousrights. Ecuadorian communities have spoken loudly and clearly: this free trade agreement will exacerbate existing concerns. 3Canada must listen and ensure rights are protected."

“Local Prosecutor Investigating U.S. Boat Strikes and Claims of Torture Was Murdered in targeted hit in a cafe in #Ecuador.
New evidence had recently emerged of U.S. Coast Guard activity in the aftermath of two strikes, further corroborating survivor testimony.
Ecuador is under the control of a pro-#Trump admin, right-wing, Miami-born president.”
