This concerns to join efforts among many countries that try to change that so anti-democratic system," Correa said.The president also criticized the Inter-American System of the Organization of American States (OAS), highlighting the contradiction that its headquarter is in Washington, when the United States does not recognize the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights.Correa hopes that the coming Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (ECLAC), to be created in Venezuela on December 2-3, replaces the OAS.Correa emphasized Ecuador´s hope to develop the ECLAC as a forum for the resolution of regional conflicts, to replace the OAS, for a clear bias in favor of hegemonic countries, Correa noted."We are working for integration, because we are awareness that only as a bloc, we will have more significance in the world, to prevent subject us not only hegemonic countries but also hegemonic capitals," the president said.
