type='text'>Presence on social networks</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;LinkedIn is still first, and YouTube in the last place.
Subscribe to Substack!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;The first is still LinkedIn, with 3,288 followers (8.2 %
growth in the last year)&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.linkedin.com/in/luisfierro/&quot;&gt;https://www.linkedin.com/in/luisfierro/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;In second place, my Twitter account, with 2,405 followers
(15.6 % growth). I would really prefer to close this account if I ever pass the
follower count on Threads or Mastodon.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/Luis_Fierro_Eco&quot;&gt;https://twitter.com/Luis_Fierro_Eco&lt;/a&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;In third place, Facebook, with 699 followers.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.facebook.com/luisfierro/&quot;&gt;https://www.facebook.com/luisfierro/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Fourth: Instagram, 233 followers (I have posted more
frequently)&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.instagram.com/luis_fierro_eco/&quot;&gt;https://www.instagram.com/luis_fierro_eco/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Fifth: Mastodon, 203 followers&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://mastodon.online/@Luis_Fierro&quot;&gt;https://mastodon.online/@Luis_Fierro&lt;/a&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Sixth: Threads, 152 followers (more than doubled from last
year, but still rather slow growth).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.threads.net/@luis_fierro_eco&quot;&gt;https://www.threads.net/@luis_fierro_eco&lt;/a&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Seventh: Substack, with 74 free subscribers (and currently
zero paid subscribers). Apart from my articles and columns, I am publishing chapters
of my novel “The Last Human”, short stories, poems (currently, my mother’s
latest poetry) and hopefully chapters of future books. I invite you to
subscribe!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://luisfierro.substack.com/&quot;&gt;https://luisfierro.substack.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Eighth: YouTube, 2 subscribers (!). I should generate more
content, given that it is the network that offers the greatest possibility of
monetization.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/@LuisFierro&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/@LuisFierro&lt;/a&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;I have considered joining BlueSky, but I don’t see any major

Another factor was the deaths and chronic diseases derived from the COVID-19 pandemic.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;--tw-ring-color: rgb(59 130 246 / 0.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Spectral, serif, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, &amp;quot;Segoe UI&amp;quot;, Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif, &amp;quot;Apple Color Emoji&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Segoe UI Emoji&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Segoe UI Symbol&amp;quot;; font-size: 19px; line-height: 1.6em; margin: 0 0 var(--size-20) 0;&quot;&gt;The lack of personnel was especially noticeable in the area of health care (doctors, physician assistants, nurses, laboratory personnel, etc.), which led to the creation of special programs to attract health specialists.

Otro factor fueron las muertes y enfermedades crónicas derivadas de la pandemia.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;--tw-ring-color: rgb(59 130 246 / 0.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Spectral, serif, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, &amp;quot;Segoe UI&amp;quot;, Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif, &amp;quot;Apple Color Emoji&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Segoe UI Emoji&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Segoe UI Symbol&amp;quot;; font-size: 19px; line-height: 1.6em; margin: 0 0 var(--size-20) 0;&quot;&gt;La carencia de personal se notó en especial en el área de cuidados de salud (doctores, asistentes médicos, enfermeros, personal de laboratorio, etc.), lo cual llevó a programas especiales para atraer especialistas de salud.

Es un gobierno electo democráticamente por una mayoría sustancial de los electores ucranianos; es un gobierno liberal y democrático que busca integrarse a la Unión Europea.&amp;nbsp; El Presidente Zelenzky es judío, por lo cual es hasta risible el calificativo.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ucrania nunca ha invadido ni un centímetro de Rusia; el gobierno ruso y sus aliados invadieron a Crimea y ciertas zonas del Donbas en 2014; han continuado hostigando y atacando a Ucrania desde entonces; y el 24 de febrero de 2022 lanzaron una invasión masiva, sin ninguna justificación ni provocación.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Es público y notorio que las fuerzas armadas rusas han disparado misiles y drones contra las instalaciones de generación eléctrica de Ucrania, lo cual es infraestructura civil, con el fin de aterrorizar y hacer pasar penurias a la población civil. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Además, es evidente que han destruido edificios residenciales, escuelas, hospitales y otra infraestructura civil, sin ningún uso militar.&amp;nbsp; Hay evidencia de torturas, violaciones, asesinatos de civiles desarmados, y el secuestro de ciudadanos ucranianos, incluyendo 14.000 niños, que han sido llevados a territorios rusos. Todos estos son crímenes de guerra, por los cuales eventualmente tendrán que pagar los culpables.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;El Señor Embajador parece ignorar que en tres ocasiones (la más reciente la semana pasada) la gran mayoría de los países (141) han condenado la invasión rusa en la Asamblea General de Naciones Unidas. Votaron a favor de Rusia apenas 6 países, incluyendo los dictadores de Corea del Norte, Bielorrusia, Nicaragua y Siria.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tenemos así a 141 naciones (la mayoría democráticas y liberales) contra 7 regímenes autoritarios, dictatoriales y fascistoides.  Lo cual parece demostrar lo que afirmé en mi columna inicial, del conflicto entre democracia liberal y autoritarismo.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7yR8iKqq9ph936DZHM3xWwYLf-jixyCyU073Qea39tibXH2Ue16kZoERirvVRtydtj56pCYCVYSIT4y6aaJERIzcvd0Ubad6q7OA2tIVaZXFmP4u-eIqgCvMnYqgk0EQG-1BN3jpAlnyhpe0Y0dwWVJ_lUOrhNg_DEMy0I9a_Ffu84ACKcAA0Ue7lhg/s1260/Civiles%20ucranianos%20muertos.jpg&quot;

El breve mensaje significaba que estaba lanzando un autogolpe de Estado.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Emulaba, de manera torpe y tembleque, el autogolpe de Alberto Fujimori que tuvo lugar el domingo 5 de abril de 1992. En este evento se disolvió por la fuerza el Congreso de la República, se intervino el Poder Judicial, el Consejo Nacional de la Magistratura, el Tribunal de Garantías Constitucionales, el Ministerio Público y la Contraloría General de la República. Fujimori también convocó a elecciones para un Congreso Constituyente, que produjo la Constitución que se encuentra vigente.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;La diferencia entre uno y otro autogolpe es que Fujimori contaba con el apoyo de las Fuerzas Armadas.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Leer más:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://luisfierro.substack.com/p/autogolpe-fallido-de-pedro-castillo&quot;&gt;https://luisfierro.substack.com/p/autogolpe-fallido-de-pedro-castillo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot;

be created for &quot;Loss and Damage&quot; caused by climate change (China, a member of the G77, has not indicated whether it will contribute to such a fund, despite being currently responsible for a third of greenhouse gas emissions). The creation of the fund was finally approved on Sunday the 20th, but the details are yet to be defined (including who should contribute and who can receive the resources).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;- The small island developing countries, and the European Union, insisted that ambition in reducing emissions should be increased, in order to keep alive the goal of limiting the increase in temperature to less than 1.5 degrees C. Others said that this goal was no longer feasible, but an effort had to be made to not exceed a 2 degree increase in temperature.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The event had to last two days longer than expected, given the difficulty in reaching consensus. There is no voting rule in the COP (not even a super-majority of 2/3 or 5/6), which is why it is understood that decisions must be unanimous (in some cases, when one or two minor countries have objected, the conference chair has indicated that it was his “sense” that there was consensus).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In my science fiction novel “&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.amazon.es/Last-Human-English-Luis-Fierro-ebook/dp/B09D45JFK8&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;The Last Human&lt;/a&gt;”, I anticipate that if a voting mechanism cannot be established, humanity will not be able to find a solution to this existential threat, and the temperature will continue to rise, and with it the sea level, natural disasters, droughts and floods in various regions, famines, among other catastrophic consequences.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;More on Substack:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://luisfierro.substack.com/p/cop-27-with-modest-results&quot;&gt;https://luisfierro.substack.com/p/cop-27-with-modest-results&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p data-pm-slice=&quot;1 1 []&quot;&gt;(*) English translation of a column published in “El Universo” newspaper in Ecuador, November 24, 2022&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.eluniverso.com/opinion/columnistas/cop-27-con-modestos-resultados-nota/&quot;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Twitter: @Luis_Fierro_C&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Before the US midterm elections on November 8, many polls
and pundits said that there would be a &quot;red wave&quot; in favor of the
Republican Party candidates (oddly, unlike the rest of the world, in the U.S., the
conservative party is identified with red, and the progressive party with
blue).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Heavy losses were anticipated in the Senate and the House of
Representatives, and in the Governorships of the States; it was thought that
the Democratic Party would lose control of Congress, leaving President Biden
without parliamentary support. It was also anticipated that a large number of
Latino voters would defect from the Democratic Party.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;A few analysts contradicted this message. Most notably
perhaps Simon Rosenberg (&lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/SimonWDC&quot;&gt;https://twitter.com/SimonWDC&lt;/a&gt;),
President of NDN, a progressive think-tank in Washington D.C. He said he saw no
evidence of a so-called &quot;red wave&quot; in nonpartisan polling, voter
enthusiasm, financial donations to parties, and, perhaps most importantly, in
early voting. According to his data, before November 8, more than 45 million
people had already voted, and among them the Democrats had an advantage of 11%
(5 million votes). The lead was particularly high in the so-called
&quot;swing&quot; or purple states, those states that do not have a significant
majority for either party.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;As I write these lines, the Democrats have already achieved
a majority in the Senate (50 Senators plus the tie-breaking vote of Vice
President Kamala Harris), with the narrow victory of Mark Kelly in Arizona and
Catherine Cortez-Masto in Nevada. There will be a runoff on December 6 in
Georgia between Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock and Republican candidate
Herschel Walker. In the first round, Warnock obtained 49.4% compared to
Walker&#39;s 48.5%, but the electoral norms in Georgia require a ballot in the
event that no one obtains 50%. Warnock is likely to prevail, given that he just
needs an additional 0.6 %, in which case the Democrats will have won one net
seat.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;In the House of Representatives, the current projection is
221 Republicans vs. 214 Democrats, but the margin favoring the Republicans in some
districts is very low, and could be reversed (one of these districts,
surprisingly, is that of the extremist Lauren Boebert, which was supposed to be
a safe seat for the Republicans). In any case, some 8 seats will be reversed in
net terms, much less than the average of 28 that is usually reversed in the
first midterm election.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;As for the Governors, the Democrats will have reverted three
states (Massachusetts, Maryland and Arizona), while the Republicans only one
(Nevada), with a net gain of 2 for the Democrats.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;In the state legislatures, the Democrats have won several,
and lost none, something that had not happened since 1934. They also managed to
win full control (Governor and two chambers) in three additional states:
Arizona, Michigan and Minnesota.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;All in all, except for the loss in the House of
Representatives, it was a good night for the Democrats.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Analysts attribute this result to three Ds. On the one hand,
the Supreme Court decision in the Dobbs case, which eliminated the national
right to abortion; this boosted voting in several states, and five state
referendums on the issue were also approved. The second D refers to Donald
Trump. He supported extremist candidates in various states (for example, for
the Senate in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona, Nevada; and for the governorship
in Pennsylvania, whose candidate lost by 15%). The third D is for
&quot;Denialists&quot;, that is, those who denied the validity of the 2020
presidential elections, and also questioned the integrity of the elections in
general. The Republican candidates for Secretary of State (official in charge
of organizing the elections) in the swing states lost (Arizona, Massachusetts,
Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Mexico; in Pennsylvania the SoS is appointed
by the Governor). These positions are important because they will participate
in the certification of presidential electors in 2024.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;One last prediction by some analysts that was totally wrong
was that Latinos would move significantly toward the Republicans. In reality,
the percentage of Hispanics who voted Democratic remained close to historical
levels (64%), down 5% from 2020. But most of this drop is due to Florida, where
voters of Cuban, Venezuelan and Nicaraguan origin believed the false attacks
that the Democrats (a party of the center, or even center-right in the European
or Latin American context) were somehow socialist. Only voters of Cuban or
South American descent in Florida voted in majority for the Republicans.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

de noviembre, la mayoría de las encuestas y pronósticos advertían que habría
una gran “ola roja” en favor de los candidatos del Partido Republicano
(curiosamente, al contrario del resto del mundo, en EE.UU. se identifica al
partido conservador con el rojo, y al partido progresista con el azul).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Representantes, y en las Gobernaciones de los Estados; que el Partido Demócrata
perdería el control del Congreso, dejando al Presidente Biden sin apoyo
parlamentario. También se anticipaba que un gran número de votantes Latinos
desertarían del Partido Demócrata.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-EC&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: ES-EC;&quot;&gt;Algunos pocos analistas contradecían este mensaje. El más notable quizás
Simon Rosenberg (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/SimonWDC&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-EC&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: ES-EC;&quot;&gt;https://twitter.com/SimonWDC&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-EC&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: ES-EC;&quot;&gt;), Presidente de NDN, un think-tank progresista en
Washington D.C. Él decía que no veía evidencia de una supuesta “marea roja” en
las encuestas no-partidistas, en el entusiasmo de los votantes, en las
donaciones económicas a los partidos, y, lo que quizás era más importante, en
la votación temprana. Según sus datos, antes del 8 de noviembre, ya habían
votado más de 45 millones de personas, y entre éstas los Demócratas tenían una
ventaja de 11 % (5 millones de votos). La ventaja era particularmente alta en
los llamados “estados pendulares” o púrpuras, aquellos estados que no tienen
una mayoría significativa para ninguno de los dos partidos.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-EC&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: ES-EC;&quot;&gt;Mientras escribo estas líneas, los Demócratas ya han logrado la mayoría
en el Senado (50 Senadores más el voto dirimente de la Vicepresidenta Kamala
Harris), al confirmarse la victoria por estrecho margen de Mark Kelly en
Arizona y Catherine Cortez-Masto en Nevada. Habrá un balotaje el 6 de diciembre
en Georgia, entre el Senador Demócrata Raphael Warnock y el candidato
Republicano, Herschel Walker. En la primera vuelta Warnock obtuvo 49,4 % frente
a 48,5 % de Walker, pero las normas electorales en Georgia obligan a un
balotaje en el caso que ninguno obtenga 50 %. Es probable que prevalezca
Warnock, dado que la votación adicional que necesita es menor (0,6 %), con lo cual
los Demócratas habrán ganado un escaño neto.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-EC&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: ES-EC;&quot;&gt;En la Cámara de Representantes, la proyección actual es 221 Republicanos
vs 214 Demócratas, pero el margen que favorece a los Republicanos en algunos
distritos es muy bajo, y podría revertirse (uno de estos distritos,
sorprendentemente, es el de la extremista Lauren Boebert, que se suponía era un
escaño seguro para los Republicanos). En cualquier caso, se revertirán en
términos netos unos 8 escaños, mucho menos que el promedio de 28 que suele voltearse
en la primera elección de medio término.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Por un lado, la
decisión de la Corte Suprema en el caso Dobbs, que eliminó el derecho nacional
al aborto; esto impulsó la votación en varios estados, y además tuvieron éxito
cinco referendos estatales sobre el tema. La segunda D se refiere a Donald
Trump. Este apoyó a candidatos extremistas en varios Estados (por ejemplo, para
el Senado en Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona, Nevada; y para la gobernación en
Pennsylvania, cuyo candidato perdió por 15 %). La tercera D es por
“Denialists”, es decir aquellos que negaban la validez de las elecciones
presidenciales de 2020, y además ponían en duda la integridad de las elecciones
en general. Los candidatos Republicanos para Secretario de Estado (funcionario
encargado de organizar las elecciones) en los estados pendulares perdieron (Arizona,
Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, Nuevo México; en Pennsylvania es
nombrado por el Gobernador). Estos cargos son importantes porque participarán
en la certificación de los electores presidenciales en 2024.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

que los Latinos se moverían significativamente hacia los Republicanos. En realidad,
el porcentaje de Hispanos que votó por los Demócratas se mantuvo cercano a los
niveles históricos (64 %), con una reducción de 5 % con respecto a 2020. Pero
la mayor parte de esta reducción se debe a Florida, donde votantes de origen
Cubano, Venezolano y Nicaragüense creyeron los ataques falsos de que los
Demócratas (un partido de centro, o incluso centro-derecha en el contexto
europeo o latinoamericano) eran de alguna manera socialistas. Solo los votantes
de origen cubano o sudamericano en Florida votaron mayoritariamente por los
Republicanos (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.brookings.edu/blog/fixgov/2022/11/11/latinos-support-democrats-over-republicans-2-1-in-house-and-senate-elections/&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-EC&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: ES-EC;&quot;&gt;https://www.brookings.edu/blog/fixgov/2022/11/11/latinos-support-democrats-over-republicans-2-1-in-house-and-senate-elections/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-EC&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: ES-EC;&quot;&gt;).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

of Ecuador, instead of going down, has continued to rise, reaching 1,945 basis points (that is, 19.45% above the US Treasury bond rate). .&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The &quot;country risk&quot; essentially reflects the probability that a country declares a default on servicing its foreign debt. It is true that Ecuador has a negative trajectory in this regard, having declared a moratorium on 11 occasions, tying with Venezuela and Argentina in the moratorium record (the last in 2020, at the beginning of the pandemic). (Spain has more defaults, but over 5 centuries).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;However, Ecuador&#39;s macroeconomic indicators should rather have induced a reduction in said risk differential.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A few weeks ago, an agreement was announced to restructure the external debt with Chinese entities, reducing the interest rate between 0.2 and 1%; extending deadlines; and reducing debt service by $870 million in 2022-23.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The fiscal deficit has fallen from $7.1 billion in 2020 to $2.3 billion in 2022. The public debt/GDP ratio will drop from 62.2% of GDP in 2020 to 57% of GDP in 2023. International reserves have exceeded $8.4 billion (having fallen to less than $2 billion in March 2020). The average price of oil has exceeded IMF projections (by $24.20 per barrel in 2022, and by $13.50 per barrel in the medium term). The projected GDP growth rate in 2022 (2.9% according to the IMF) is one of the highest in the region, while inflation is one of the lowest (4.1%).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;All these objective macroeconomic factors should have lowered the country risk to around 500-600 points, but instead it has shot up to almost 2,000 points.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The explanation, therefore, is not that the default risk has increased in the short term (I would say that this risk is zero, given that the main payments to the IMF and China have been postponed from 2025, and of sovereign bonds to 2026).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The concern is fundamentally political:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;It is considered that the government of President Lasso will not be able to approve structural reforms in the Assembly, for example, in the labor or investment legislation.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The commitment to double oil production does not seem viable (mining production will continue to increase, but gradually).&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;There is a risk that the Assembly will dismiss the President, or that he will invoke the &quot;simultaneous death&quot; (closing the Assembly and calling for new elections).&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Although the leader of the indigenous confederation, Leonidas Iza, has weakened his support within the indigenous movement, a new “national insurrection” is still possible, affecting oil, mining, and rural production (agriculture, livestock, flowers, etc.).&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;It is feared that the next government (either a product of the “crossed death”, or regular elections in 2025) will not be “market friendly” and will invoke a new debt moratorium.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The &quot;Iza effect&quot; then becomes in reality an Iza-Correa-PSC-Pachakutik effect. Some PSC spokespersons (among them Mayor Cynthia Viteri) have questioned the servicing of the external debt, and apparently they have a close alliance with Correísmo and the “anti-capitalist” sectors of the Pachakutik movement.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There are also technical factors that affect Ecuador&#39;s country risk, such as low liquidity and high transaction costs, given that the country is not a recurring issuer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the long term, the only way to overcome this perception of high risk is by achieving a fiscal agreement between the main political forces, assuming as an objective to lower the cost of the country&#39;s external financing; and tax reforms that raise the level of fiscal pressure in the country to levels close to the average for Latin America. Currently, it is 19.1% of GDP, while the average for Latin America is 21.9%, and for OECD countries 33.5%.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(*) Translated version of the column published in &quot;El Universo&quot; newspaper on October 20, 2022&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.eluniverso.com/opinion/columnistas/por-que-no-baja-el-riesgo-pais-nota/&quot;&gt;https://www.eluniverso.com/opinion/columnistas/por-que-no-baja-el-riesgo-pais-nota/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAqu94_al-VHQ_EYWPMKP7VBBK1Ti_ZW4tuQ_nWkKENyVqA2nYJM9PeI5KSa8_k7m1UFbJ_bkzkzKQAVmAy2CN5vZKwGmjXXeDzZCWrpjd-41YurNr9bVyY4pNeMxCn7HxHu_JJUYKVUgCCogJ7j9XOZG0aAWTX8i44aKl2Ig-wmH_KBMmobRWMY6T6g/s1686/Riesgo%20Pais%202022.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; data-original-height=&quot;1010&quot; data-original-width=&quot;1686&quot; height=&quot;384&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAqu94_al-VHQ_EYWPMKP7VBBK1Ti_ZW4tuQ_nWkKENyVqA2nYJM9PeI5KSa8_k7m1UFbJ_bkzkzKQAVmAy2CN5vZKwGmjXXeDzZCWrpjd-41YurNr9bVyY4pNeMxCn7HxHu_JJUYKVUgCCogJ7j9XOZG0aAWTX8i44aKl2Ig-wmH_KBMmobRWMY6T6g/w640-h384/Riesgo%20Pais%202022.jpg&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://economicsandinvestment.blogspot.com/feeds/2736656249107349144/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://economicsandinvestment.blogspot.com/2022/10/why-doesnt-ecuador-country-risk-go-down.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/299993106614431474/posts/default/2736656249107349144'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/299993106614431474/posts/default/2736656249107349144'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://economicsandinvestment.blogspot.com/2022/10/why-doesnt-ecuador-country-risk-go-down.html' title='Why doesn&#39;t the Ecuador country risk go down?'/><author><name>Luis Fierro</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03830008088932290673</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgncn3xsyGxA4-IaMUvGX8iQfqHsrlBhBLB7qd97zVz_Jh7kaYC_1TiKy7rt5xKyGz-QF9fq5Do0-RNH5muoh7HkIEcVSdZeTXxXXklwD3f19CpqqcGjpla8LT_ExXK5EQ/s113/Foto+Luis+Fierro.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAqu94_al-VHQ_EYWPMKP7VBBK1Ti_ZW4tuQ_nWkKENyVqA2nYJM9PeI5KSa8_k7m1UFbJ_bkzkzKQAVmAy2CN5vZKwGmjXXeDzZCWrpjd-41YurNr9bVyY4pNeMxCn7HxHu_JJUYKVUgCCogJ7j9XOZG0aAWTX8i44aKl2Ig-wmH_KBMmobRWMY6T6g/s72-w640-h384-c/Riesgo%20Pais%202022.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299993106614431474.post-2440750159485017458</id><published>2022-10-21T07:47:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2022-10-21T07:47:22.668-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="China"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="CONAIE"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="deuda"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="déficit"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Ecuador"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Lasso"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Leonidas Iza"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="petróleo"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="PIB"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="reservas"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="riesgo país"/><title type='text'>¿Por qué no baja el riesgo país? </title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;Por Luis Fierro Carrión (*)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

seguido subiendo, alcanzando 1.945 puntos básicos (esto es, 19,45 % por

moratorias (la última en 2020, al inicio de la pandemia). (España tiene más
moratorias, pero a lo largo de 5 siglos).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-EC&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: ES-EC;&quot;&gt;El déficit fiscal ha bajado de $7.100 millones en 2020 a $2.300 millones
en 2022. La relación deuda pública/PIB bajará de 62,2 % del PIB en 2020, a 57 %
del PIB en 2023. Las reservas internacionales han superado $8.400 millones
(habiendo bajado a menos de $2.000 millones en marzo 2020). &lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;El precio promedio del petróleo ha superado
las proyecciones del FMI (por $24,20 por barril en 2022, y en $13,50 por barril
en un plazo mediano). La tasa de crecimiento del PIB prevista en 2022 (2,9 %
según el FMI) es una de las mas altas en la región, en tanto que la inflación es
una de las más bajas (4,1 %).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-EC&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: ES-EC;&quot;&gt;Todos estos factores macroeconómicos objetivos deberían haber bajado el
riesgo país a unos 500-600 puntos, pero en su lugar se ha disparado a cerca de
2.000 puntos.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

moratoria en el corto plazo (diría que ese riesgo es cero, dado que los pagos
principales del FMI y China se han postergado a partir de 2025, y de los bonos
soberanos a 2026).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Iza-Correa-PSC-Pachakutik. Algunos voceros del PSC (entre ellos la Alcaldesa

una alianza estrecha con el Correísmo y los sectores “anticapitalistas” del

In the collective sphere, it seems that the Quito Metro, whose construction ended without having resolved the issue of its operational management, is finally going to start operating in a few months. In Cuenca, the tram also had to wait more than a year between its construction and its operation. In Guayaquil, the Airway that connects Durán with Guayaquil came into operation, although with little influx of the public. In Guayaquil, the use of electric buses has also been promoted.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;These are incipient steps in the use of electro-mobility in Ecuador. There are resources from multilateral development banks (IDB, CAF, AFD, KfW) to promote a more intensive use of electric vehicles, which also requires the installation of a network of battery charging stations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;By using electric vehicles, the consumption of fossil fuels is reduced (and, therefore, the cost of subsidies for the State is lower), and the excess capacity of hydroelectric generation is better used (the vehicles should preferably be recharged late at night, with a reduced rate).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Efforts have also been made to promote renewable energy beyond large hydroelectric plants, through the approval for the installation of solar and wind power plants (in Loja, Manabí, Galapagos, among others).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The government has announced plans to rationalize the use of natural gas, which may include: stopping burning gas at the oil wells and refineries, and instead capturing and using such valuable resources; and making better use of the gas from the Gulf (instead of forcing the thermoelectric generation at the Termogas Machala plant, at hours when hydroelectric generation would suffice).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There are resources available to promote the energy transition towards greater use of renewable energy and more energy efficiency, by multilateral and bilateral development banks (World Bank, European Investment Bank, IDB, CAF, AFD, KfW, Green Climate Fund, etc.).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The National Climate Finance Strategy was approved in February 2021. This strategy seeks to establish a clear and effective governance of climate finance; transversally integrate the climate approach in the financial system; and promote greater access to climate finance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Ministry of Economy and Finance and the Ministry of the Environment, Water and Ecological Transition are in charge of promoting these processes. In addition, the accreditation of a public bank before the Green Climate Fund and the Adaptation Fund is contemplated.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ecuador is already a power in the generation of energy with low emissions, and must continue promoting the conversion of the vehicle fleet towards electromobility.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(*) A Spanish version of this column was published on September 16, 2022, in &quot;Diario El Universo&quot; of Ecuador:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.eluniverso.com/opinion/columnistas/financiando-la-transicion-energetica-nota/&quot;&gt;https://www.eluniverso.com/opinion/columnistas/financiando-la-transicion-energetica-nota/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg324zNTqMIubpdeqcxqQkyVERTUK-JC6Fn0hqwJrEcWrudYByPF1_2dEt1MKlBCrVoVyEWh-3HxfI9V-XnF_91ud9XWyX0WChIguiHC2dNMeuaoEUBVCjduG7wIRk2ZyA8_GpB_dWjd65QM51OSwwYDTz56BTzqydq1-DR6hJCsxvyWy1v-2fHiu42LQ/s400/Luis%20Fierro%20Financiamiento%20Climatico.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; data-original-height=&quot;229&quot; data-original-width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;229&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg324zNTqMIubpdeqcxqQkyVERTUK-JC6Fn0hqwJrEcWrudYByPF1_2dEt1MKlBCrVoVyEWh-3HxfI9V-XnF_91ud9XWyX0WChIguiHC2dNMeuaoEUBVCjduG7wIRk2ZyA8_GpB_dWjd65QM51OSwwYDTz56BTzqydq1-DR6hJCsxvyWy1v-2fHiu42LQ/w400-h229/Luis%20Fierro%20Financiamiento%20Climatico.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://economicsandinvestment.blogspot.com/feeds/1228913882823253617/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://economicsandinvestment.blogspot.com/2022/09/financing-energy-transition-in-ecuador.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/299993106614431474/posts/default/1228913882823253617'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/299993106614431474/posts/default/1228913882823253617'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://economicsandinvestment.blogspot.com/2022/09/financing-energy-transition-in-ecuador.html' title='Financing the energy transition in Ecuador '/><author><name>Luis Fierro</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03830008088932290673</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgncn3xsyGxA4-IaMUvGX8iQfqHsrlBhBLB7qd97zVz_Jh7kaYC_1TiKy7rt5xKyGz-QF9fq5Do0-RNH5muoh7HkIEcVSdZeTXxXXklwD3f19CpqqcGjpla8LT_ExXK5EQ/s113/Foto+Luis+Fierro.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg324zNTqMIubpdeqcxqQkyVERTUK-JC6Fn0hqwJrEcWrudYByPF1_2dEt1MKlBCrVoVyEWh-3HxfI9V-XnF_91ud9XWyX0WChIguiHC2dNMeuaoEUBVCjduG7wIRk2ZyA8_GpB_dWjd65QM51OSwwYDTz56BTzqydq1-DR6hJCsxvyWy1v-2fHiu42LQ/s72-w400-h229-c/Luis%20Fierro%20Financiamiento%20Climatico.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299993106614431474.post-8498266777274247417</id><published>2022-09-16T01:09:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2022-09-16T01:09:05.415-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Ecuador"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="electromovilidad"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="energía renovable"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="financiamiento climático"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Metro"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="subsidios"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="transporte"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Tranvía"/><title type='text'>Financiando la transición energética </title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;Por Luis Fierro Carrión (*)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

un renovado ímpetu con respecto a la necesidad de avanzar hacia la transición energética
en el Ecuador.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-EC&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: ES-EC;&quot;&gt;La extorsión generada por el paro de la CONAIE, que forzó al gobierno a
aumentar el subsidio a los combustibles fósiles, también vuelve aun más urgente
la necesidad de reducir el consumo de combustibles fósiles y fomentar el uso de
energía renovable.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-EC&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: ES-EC;&quot;&gt;Los subsidios a los combustibles fósiles constituyen un sinsentido
completo, dado su impacto sobre la distribución del ingreso (regresivo), sobre
la salud (negativo), el cambio climático, la contaminación ambiental y el
déficit fiscal.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-EC&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: ES-EC;&quot;&gt;Una forma de encarar estos problemas es fomentar el uso de transporte
eléctrico, sea individual o colectivo. En el ámbito colectivo, parece que
finalmente se va a echar a andar el Metro de Quito, cuya construcción concluyó
sin haber resuelto el tema de su gestión operativa. En Cuenca, el tranvía igualmente
tuvo que esperar más de un año entre su construcción y su operación. En
Guayaquil, entró en operación la Aerovía que comunica Durán con Guayaquil,
aunque con escasa afluencia del público. En Guayaquil también se ha promovido
el uso de buses eléctricos. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-EC&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: ES-EC;&quot;&gt;Estos son pasos incipientes en el uso de la electro-movilidad en el
Ecuador. Existen recursos de bancos multilaterales de desarrollo (BID, CAF,
AFD, KfW) para promover un uso más intensivo de vehículos eléctricos, lo cual
también requiere la instalación de una red de estaciones de recarga de
baterías. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

fósiles (y, por ende, disminuye el costo de los subsidios para el Estado), y se
aprovecha de mejor manera el excedente de capacidad de generación
hidroeléctrica (los vehículos deberían recargarse preferentemente por la noche,
con una tarifa reducida).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

allá de las grandes centrales hidroeléctricas, mediante la instalación de
plantas de energía solar y eólica (en Loja, Manabí, Galápagos, entre otras).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-EC&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: ES-EC;&quot;&gt;El gobierno ha anunciado planes para racionalizar el uso del gas
natural, lo cual puede incluir: dejar de quemar gas en los mecheros en los
pozos petroleros y las refinerías, y más bien captar y usar dichos recursos
valiosos; y utilizar de mejor manera el gas del Golfo (en lugar de forzar la
generación termoeléctrica en la planta de Termogas Machala).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

hacia el mayor uso de energía renovable, por parte de los bancos multilaterales

magazine published a rather optimistic article predicting a long &quot;boom&quot; of prosperity, freedom, and environmental improvements in the next 25 years (until 2022).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;However, to temper such optimism a bit, it also published a sidebar on problems that could arise and adversely affect this boom.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Some of these negative predictions have been fulfilled almost to the letter:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• “Tensions between China and the US escalate into a new Cold War — bordering on a hot one.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• “Russia devolves into a kleptocracy run by a mafia or retreats into quasi-communist nationalism that threatens Europe&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• “Major ecological crisis causes a global climate change that among other things, disrupts the food supply - causing big price increases everywhere and sporadic famines&quot;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Others have been partially fulfilled, for example&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• “An uncontrollable plague - a modern-day influenza epidemic or its equivalent - takes off like wildfire, killing upward of 200 million people&quot;. The COVID-19 pandemic is estimated to have killed 20 million people to date.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• “Europe&#39;s integration process grinds to a halt. Eastern and Western Europe can&#39;t finesse a reunification&quot;. Although the United Kingdom left the European Union through Brexit, since 1997 the number of Member States of the European Union has increased from 15 to 27 (including several Central and Eastern European countries), with an additional 10 countries waiting to enter.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• An increase in crime and terrorism.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Other predictions failed, for example, that new technologies would not bring about an increase in productivity.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In my science fiction novel &quot;The Last Human&quot;, I make some predictions until 2064.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Without going into too many &quot;spoilers&quot;, some of these are:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• The Saudi autocracy will collapse and an Islamic republic will be established.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Both China and Cuba will move towards multi-party democracies, although still with a predominance of a “democratic socialist” party; while the North Korean government will implode and reunite with South Korea.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Russia will weaken, losing population and economic dynamism (the novel was written before the 2022 invasion of Ukraine).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Islamist fundamentalists will detonate several radiological bombs (explosives that disperse radioactive material); and they will also blow up nuclear plants.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Despite the Paris Agreement and other efforts to combat climate change, the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere will continue to rise, and sea levels will continue to rise. More natural disasters due to climate change will occur, and several cities and areas of the planet will be flooded.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Global artificial intelligence systems will gain consciousness.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• The Republican Party in the US will collapse, as the proportion of the US population that is Latino, Asian, or black increases (and as the position of young white people changes as well). A party further to the left of the Democratic Party will eventually emerge.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• In Europe, on the other hand, there will be an ascendancy of far-right, anti-Islamic, xenophobic and racist parties; and greater political fragmentation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Collapse of agriculture, pollination, loss of drinking water sources.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• Nuclear proliferation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;• The Israeli government will decide to decentralize the Jewish population to other regions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My novel tries to be a call to action to avoid being affected by these new horsemen of the Apocalypse.
