We come to reject it from here”,said the Ecuadorian Chancellor.

We are those Non-Aligned against imperialism, are those Non-Aligned against injustice. We came here to reclaim global justice and the importance of the peoples of the South, in order to change the rules of the game imposed by the north”, he said.
