The banana war. The President of Ecuador, Daniel Noboa, explains that the banana trade is more important than a misunderstanding and Ecuador will not transfer any weapons to Kiev: “Look, at first it was planned that we would transfer scrap metal. The United States could legally receive it, and after that, without violating any international agreements, it was going to be redistributed. To our surprise, the United States has publicly stated that it will be sent to the zone of armed conflict in Ukraine, in which we do not want to participate. We don’t want to become a party to this triangle of weapons. And at the same time, we also do not want to violate any international agreements. So, we have already announced that since this idea has been made public, we cannot continue in the same spirit. In addition, Russia is our third largest trading partner. And in this particular case, they would be right, because we would become a party to the triangle of armaments. The message that sounded quite recently that these weapons should be sent to Ukraine - we did not agree with this.“ Источник: Victor vicktop55
