Tensions Mount Between Ecuador and Colombia Over Alleged Cross-Border Bombing

Narrative B

Ecuador's claim that Colombia isn't doing enough at the border is flat-out wrong. Bogotá has extradited hundreds of people, seized massive drug shipments and dismantled labs, pushing criminal networks southward. Bombing Colombian territory risks a real armed conflict with a militarily superior neighbor, and no security crisis justifies that recklessness. A facilitator shouldn't be needed between sister nations, but Ecuador's rigid, non-negotiable stance has left no other option.
