Lawlessness has soared across Ecuador since the coronavirus pandemic, something outgoing President Guillermo Lasso blames on disputes related to drug trafficking and common crime. Some 27% of Ecuadoreans live in poverty, while 10.8% live in extreme poverty on a national level, according to the government's statistics office. Olivier De Schutter, the United Nations special rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights, said impoverished youth were easy picking for gangs looking to recruit new members. Lasso, who brought forward elections to avoid impeachment, has repeatedly declared states of emergency in answer to outbreaks of violence. "We need a social Bukele, one that takes seriously the links between poverty and the rise in violence," he added.

El se declară în acest context împotriva austerităţii bugetare, care a fost abordarea de bază a UE sub influenţă germană în anii 2010. ''I-am văzut consecinţele: creşterea populismului, a sărăciei şi şomajului. Am înţeles că probabil reţetele nu erau adaptate. Statele din Sud, precum Franţa, Italia, Spania sau Portugalia sunt favorabile acestei ultime propuneri. Statele UE au reacţionat diferit faţă de propunerea preşedintelui american Joe Biden de a fi ridicate brevetele pentru vaccinurile anti-COVID-19 astfel încât să fie accelerate producţia şi distribuţia acestora la nivel global.
