Ecuador's President Marches Against Court's Security Law Suspension

Ecuador's President Marches Against Court's Security Law Suspension

President Noboa of Ecuador led a march because some rules about keeping the country safe were temporarily stopped by the highest court.

These rules included things like letting security forces be protected if they made mistakes.

Some people think Noboa is trying to protect the country from crime, but others believe he is trying to control the judges.

The court had concerns that these new rules might not be fair to people.

There were signs at the march that accused the judges of making the country unsafe, which the court said put them at risk.

A special person from the UN also worries that the judges might be pressured to do what others want.
