Morales granted indigenous groups seven seats in a new 166-member Congress to be elected in December instead of the 29 seats they asked for.

Even so simmering anti-mining sentiment in Indian hamlets across mineral-rich southern Ecuador could prove to be a challenge for President Rafael Correa and foreign miners exploring for precious metals.

Joy Craig of the Arizona Public Safety Department said that the vehicle had no rear seats and that most of the passengers were ejected when the vehicle crashed just before midnight Saturday.

Emerging-market debt after Ecuador Reuters Blogs He has represented dozens of sovereign debtors and is known as the inventor of the exit consent — a tool by which countries can eviscerate the legal rights of minority bondholders. Up until very recently he was considered by most private-sector bondholders to be the enemy; one of them described him to me once as an “evil genius”. But Lee was singing a very different tune today and unloaded with both barrels on his former client Ecuador and its president Rafael Correa. Ecuador is a “rogue debtor” he says and its most recent default is pretty much the first time in 30 years that a country has defaulted without at least “a colorable claim to distress”. Ecuador’s offer to its bondholders said Buchheit was “an extraordinary document unlike anything I’ve ever seen in this business”. Where most countries in distress at least pay lip service to the idea of wanting (just being unable) to pay Ecuador repudiated its bonds outright and said that it considered itself to have no legal or moral obligation to pay so much as a penny for them. That strategy was no doubt. Chile’s LAN May passenger traffic up 11.4 percent Reuters International passenger traffic rose 4. 8 percent during themonth compared with the year-ago month.
