Ricardo Patiño, former foreign minister of Ecuador, warned of the importance of caring for the lives of innocent people such as former Vice President Jorge Glas, and urged governments around the world, particularly those in Latin America, to be attentive to the case.

During an interview with Telesur, Patiño stated that the former vice-president's state of health is delicate, after he was kidnapped from the Mexican Embassy in Quito, “his life (that of Glas) is in danger. This is very important!”

“Governments must tell their Ecuadorian counterpart: No longer continue to trample the laws, especially take care of the life of an innocent man like Jorge Glas,” he said.

The former foreign minister pointed out that there is an obvious persecution by the Ecuadorian authorities against Glas. “Even our political opponents claim that the former vice-president is innocent,” but the country's extreme right is averse to any sign of progressivism.
