#both rejected

Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa, a conservative closely aligned with the Trump administration, had pushed Ecuador's courts to include the question about launching a process that could lead to a new constitution. In a referendum held on Sunday, Ecuadorians voted against a proposal to host foreign military bases, as well as another to launch a process that could lead to a new constitution. It was a significant defeat for President Daniel Noboa, a conservative who is closely aligned with the Trump administration. He had pushed Ecuador's courts to include the question about rewriting the constitution. Six out of 10 voters said no. Noboa said in an X message after the results were released that his government will "respect the will of the people" and would continue to fight for the country that "everyone deserves.”
