Ecuador may seek to send UN peacekeepers to Colombia border

'We want the OAS to be able to guarantee border vigilance. If it cannot we could ask for help from the Blue Helmets,' as the peacekeepers are known, Larrea said. The OAS should decide how Colombia, under international supervision, police the nearly 600 km border shared by the two, 'so that peace between the two nations can last,' Larrea said. He added that Ecuador seeks guarantees that there will be no raids on its territory by Colombia.

    Only some dumb bureaucrat or politico without any sense of socialist solidarity could seriously propose either the U.N. or the OAS as "peacekeepers". These organizations cannot be trusted. They are under the control of imperialism, and that's that.

    Best that Ecuador join ALBA forthwith and enter a de facto military pact with these countries -- and against the colombian oligarchy and the U.S. empire, openly or otherwise.

    Then we'll see who wants to step across what border.
