Quito, October 1 (teleSUR-RHC)-- Ecuadorean President Rafael Correa delivered the closing remarks at a three-day conference held in Quito on Wednesday in which he gave a passionate speech advocating for redistribution of wealth in the country.

Speaking at the conference, President Correa argued  the country must introduce policies aimed at redistributing the country’s wealth in order to eliminate economic inequalities.

He also defended the government-led inheritance tax proposal which he stated would put an end to the “illegitimate accumulation of wealth,” by the country’s economic elite.

During his speech, President Correa criticized the media role in its attack against the tax proposal, which sparked violent protests from sectors of the Ecuadorean elite earlier this year.

Ecuadorean President Rafael Correa was speaking at the ELAP summit in Quito, Ecuador, a gathering of representatives from progressive governments and movements across Latin America, including representatives from Venezuela, Ecuador, and El Salvador.
