Correísmo reappeared with criticism after being absent from the presidential inauguration.

Two days after the official inauguration, the Revolución Ciudadana caucus broke its silence. Several legislators expressed their disagreement with the presidential address and defended their absence from the event.

Assemblyman Franklin Samaniego labeled several of the president's statements as "lies." He asserted that the promises had already been announced before and were not fulfilled during the previous term.

He also lamented that the president did not clearly address issues such as security and employment. In his view, the speech was strong in words but weak in solutions.

In contrast, Raúl Chávez, from the RC-Reto bloc, adopted a less confrontational stance. He said they expect the commitments to be fulfilled and assured that they are not seeking to block the government.

The reasons for the absence from the ceremony were diverse according to the legislators. Chávez maintained that each assemblyman had their own reasons, while Samaniego accused the ruling party of acting undemocratically and excluding correísmo.

In addition, the caucus keeps the thesis that there were irregularities in the April 13 elections. Although they did not present concrete evidence, this narrative seeks to undermine the legitimacy of the new term.

The public reappearance of correísmo was marked by divided speeches. While some advocate for a frontal opposition, others call for dialogue amid a pressing national situation.

The statements from Revolución Ciudadana reflect a fragmented strategy with no clear direction. Their criticisms, far from generating proposals, reinforce the perception of a movement stuck in the past.

In contrast, the new government has managed to consolidate its start with institutional support. The public demands less confrontation and more concrete solutions.
