Daniel Noboa, who finished \u200csecond in the\u200c recent presidential election, plans to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/fact-check-kamala-harris-peddles-dangerous-misinformation\/\" title=\"FACT CHECK: Kamala Harris Peddles Dangerous Misinformation\">put violent offenders<\/a> on prison ships located \u2064thousands\u2063 of miles out\u200b at sea. In an interview with Agence \u2063France-Presse (AFP), Noboa expressed his determination\u200d to address Ecuador&#8217;s issues \u2064of\u2063 violence and drug trade.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Groups \u200dof\u2064 narco-terrorists are involved here.\u2062 We are living through a war,&#8221; Noboa\u2064 told AFP.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Concerns about his safety are\u2064 evident, as Noboa was interviewed\u200b inside a well-guarded van, wearing\u2064 a bulletproof vest, and surrounded by a team of bodyguards. This caution is understandable,\u200d considering that a prominent \u2062candidate, Fernando Villavicencio, was recently\u200d assassinated for his stance \u200bagainst crime in Ecuador.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;I \u200cam saying similar things to him,&#8221; Noboa said. &#8220;Maybe they will \u2062kill me too.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Ecuador&#8217;s prisons have gained \u2062notoriety for their dangerous conditions, often controlled by\u2062 criminal gangs. Just\u200b last\u200c month, a violent uprising \u2064in Guayaquil&#8217;s Litoral Penitentiary resulted in the deaths of 31 people, with\u2062 some victims being beheaded. The dire situation in Ecuador&#8217;s\u2064 prisons has\u2062 led Noboa to propose\u200c his unconventional solution.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>One of \u2062Noboa&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/ecuador-presidential-candidate-proposes-prison-ships-far-out-to-sea-action-against-narco-terrorists\/\" title=\"Ecuador's candidate suggests offshore prison ships, fights narco-terrorism.\">reforms\u200c includes placing\u2062 violent criminals<\/a> in prison ships &#8220;thousands of miles out at sea,&#8221; as AFP reports.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>By leasing ships and implementing armed guards, Noboa believes this approach could swiftly address\u200d the problem. Ecuador&#8217;s current president, Guillermo Lasso, \u2062supports\u2063 Noboa&#8217;s stance, acknowledging the urgent need\u200b for \u2063change.<\/p>\n<p>While \u200cNoboa acknowledges \u200dthat\u200d building maximum-security \u2062prisons will\u2063 take\u200b time, he emphasizes the importance of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/bipartisan-congressional-delegation-visits-ukraine-as-tensions-grow-with-russia\/\" title=\"Bipartisan Congressional Delegation Visits Ukraine As Tensions Grow With Russia\">taking strong measures<\/a> to reduce violence and provide opportunities for the youth.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;You can&#8217;t change the world \u200cin a year and a half,\u2064 but you can change key things,&#8221; \u200bNoboa stated.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In October, Noboa will face off against Luisa Gonzalez, the\u2064 frontrunner and a protege\u200d of Ecuador&#8217;s former socialist\u2063 president, Rafael Correa. The\u200d outcome of the election will determine whether Noboa&#8217;s bold plan becomes a reality.<\/p>\n<h3>Sources:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.france24.com\/en\/live-news\/20221123-ecuador-a-new-nerve-center-for-global-drug-trade\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">France24<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/news.yahoo.com\/ecuador-presidential-hopeful-vows-prison-181824547.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Yahoo News<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/right-wing-presidential-candidate-assassinated-by-organized-crime-after-vowing-to-take-on-crime\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The\u200d Daily Wire<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2023\/07\/26\/americas\/ecuador-drug-violence-crisis-explainer-intl\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CNN<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2023\/07\/27\/americas\/ecuador-prison-violence-bodily-remains-intl\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CNN<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/bjs.ojp.gov\/content\/pub\/pdf\/msfp0119st.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bureau of Justice Statistics<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/ecuador-presidential-election-candidate-killed-0d1b5a7c56c671217a47c1ecb7e826fe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Associated Press<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/americas\/ecuador-should-hold-violent-convicts-prison-boats-says-presidential-hopeful-2023-08-22\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Reuters<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-describedby=\"sk-tooltip-9096\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1692980418669000&#038;usg=AOvVaw15MNQZ1U33fOZBroIc4gYb\">CLICK HERE TO\u200d GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A presidential candidate in Ecuador plans to imprison the country&#8217;s most violent criminals on prison ships far out at sea if elected.
