    “Our partners are well aware of the provisions of the contracts, which include an obligation to use the supplied equipment for the stated purposes and not to transfer it to a third party without obtaining the relevant agreement of the Russian side.”

    “Yeah, but we’ve also read the Budapest Memorandum and see how little your commitments mean to others, so this is just par for the course” - Ecuador probably

    There were news or gossips of:

    1. Them cutting import of Ecuadorian bananas.
    2. Because bananas are now imported from India.
    3. Because oil and gas companies have problems processing payments in indian money and exchange them so they take them in a form of products while cutting exports.

    That may be the initial reason why they blame Ecuador now. They slow down their economical ties with them. So they feel free to make it also a political statement.

    I don’t know how true it is, so double check it.
