On his first visit to Ecuador as Secretary of State, Marco Rubio focused on the need for security in the face of the narcoterrorist threat. “You cannot have economic prosperity without stability, and you cannot have stability without security,” said Secretary Rubio. “[I]t’s nearly impossible to attract foreign investment into a country unless you have security.”“And Ecuador is facing some substantial challenges that come from the exterior,” warned Secretary Rubio. One is Los Lobos and the other is Los Choneros, said Secretary Rubio. .it’s the reason why we’ll be working very closely with this government to achieve our mutual goals that benefit both the United States and the great people of Ecuador.”
