TEXTUAL TRANSCRIPTION<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Arroba Ditto:<\/strong> Eight fifteen in the morning. That\u2019s my Barcelona<\/em>! That\u2019s my Barcelona<\/em>! That\u2019s my Barcelona<\/em>! My dear friends. What a moment. Barcelona <\/em>fans, root of the Astillero. My dear Economist, what a good topic.<\/p>\n

Oswaldo Calder\u00f3n:\u00a0 <\/strong>Very nice.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>Barcelona <\/em>fans, root of the Astillero. And how many people have given a show of force for Barcelona <\/em>to be champion! Among them there is also one, Mr. Attorney, \u00c1lvaro Noboa, who contributed $700,000 to the team. Those $700,000 do you know, were they given, loaned?<\/p>\n

Oswaldo Calder\u00f3n: <\/strong>\u00a0It\u2019s been mentioned that it was loaned, then later that it was a contribution. A contribution from Grupo Noboa <\/em>to the Barcelona Sporting Club<\/em>. That detail needs to be precisely established.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>Yes, right, so let\u2019s try to call Attorney \u00c1lvaro Noboa in order to see what he can tell us about the issue. What can \u00c1lvaro Noboa tell us about this issue. Let\u2019s see if we can reach Attorney \u00c1lvaro Noboa, my dear Lucho, to talk with him. Eight sixteen in the morning. Eight sixteen. Here we have Counselor Noboa. Counselor. Are you there?\u00a0 Good day from Radio Sucre <\/em>headquarters of CADENAR Satellite.<\/p>\n

\u00c1lvaro Noboa:\u00a0 <\/strong>How are you, Vicente. Good morning, Ecuadorians.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>Look, my dear Attorney, happy here with the win of Barcelona<\/em>, but you contributed $700,000. In what form? Was it a gift? A donation? A loan? You could tell us about this.<\/p>\n

\u00c1lvaro Noboa:\u00a0 <\/strong>I loaned it because although Barcelona<\/em> is in its most important historical moment \u2013 which has cost it a lot \u2013 together with the previous bad administration \u2013 has left Barcelona <\/em>in a difficult economic situation. So, then, at this moment, it needed support and for over 50 years Barcelona<\/em> has always received the support of Grupo Noboa<\/em>. Remember Barcelona<\/em>\u2019s first important shirt was from Quaker<\/em>, then under the Isidro Romero administration, Grupo Noboa<\/em> contributed a lot and again, with such merit on the part of Antonio Noboa and Luis Noboa Ycaza, they deserved support once more, especially at this moment.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>Counselor Noboa, and how is Barcelona <\/em>going to pay those $700,000 now?<\/p>\n

\u00c1lvaro Noboa:\u00a0 <\/strong>I don\u2019t exactly know when it\u2019s going to be able to pay, because the economic ceiling that they have is strong, but from there we\u2019ll wait until they can. They calculate two months, but we\u2019ll see when.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>Are you charging them any interest?<\/p>\n

\u00c1lvaro Noboa:\u00a0 <\/strong>It went through one of the companies and according to the law they have to charge the Banco Central <\/em>minimum, by law because the Treasury does not accept any loan being made without interest.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>Correct, Counselor. And what possibility is there that it could be paid for through advertising in one of the Barcelona <\/em>uniforms, and they don\u2019t need to debilitate the monies that Barcelona <\/em>needs so much?<\/p>\n

\u00c1lvaro Noboa:\u00a0 <\/strong>What a lot of people are asking me to do is to try to get a great football player for Noche Amarilla<\/em> [Exhibition Match]. That it really be a big surprise. Because we have already won this championship, but now it\u2019s time for the Copa Libertadores<\/em>, and for Barcelona <\/em>to be champion, hopefully, of the Copa Libertadores<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>But here it\u2019s being said, we said yesterday via Radio Sucre<\/em>, that Acosta had quit, that it was the last game this week and he would move to Universidad de Chile<\/em>. Is there any truth to that? Do you know anything about it?<\/p>\n

\u00c1lvaro Noboa:\u00a0 <\/strong>I don\u2019t have those details. I have given my nephews Antonio Noboa and Luis Noboa all of my support, the soccer merit is completely their own. My grain of sand is simply supporting them.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>Now, what truth is there to you giving away tickets to the stadium for this game?<\/p>\n

\u00c1lvaro Noboa:\u00a0 <\/strong>There is a raffle now. I don\u2019t exactly know the details, but you can get tickets, there are a few tickets that we were able to get at the last minute, not very many. There are a few tickets but they\u2019re very sought after and every little while throughout every day, via Twitter<\/em>, they raffle them off, a raffle to get those tickets.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>Okay, Counselor. Really, do you think this last match should be played on Saturday or Sunday?<\/p>\n

\u00c1lvaro Noboa:\u00a0 <\/strong>Saturday, because it\u2019s possible, according to the law, to celebrate on that day. If someone wants to have a beer, or wine, or whatever they want, they can. On Sunday, there is a dry law, and that\u2019s a problem.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>On the other hand, last night there were a number of incidents in various sectors. They attacked the changing rooms in the Monumental, a number of things were destroyed. There were 16 wounded, both contusions and injuries. Wouldn\u2019t Saturday be more dangerous than Sunday? Because of the prohibition to sell alcohol on Sunday.<\/p>\n

\u00c1lvaro Noboa:\u00a0 <\/strong>Unfortunately, there is always a bad apple that dedicate itself to committing outrages, but it\u2019s not the majority of the population. It\u2019s up to the Police to control those badly behaved people, those people who behave badly.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>Did you celebrate Barcelona<\/em>\u2019s win last night?<\/p>\n

\u00c1lvaro Noboa:\u00a0 <\/strong>I celebrated it with To\u00f1o and Lucho at the Tennis Club and then with a group of friends. Jorge Volpe was there, my cousin Roberto Ponce, the owners of Sumesa<\/em> were there, the father, the son and their wives. Roberto Ponce\u2019s wife was there, too, my neice, Mar\u00eda de los \u00c1ngeles Navarrete. Ana Luis P\u00e9rez, the daughter of Alfonso P\u00e9rez and Patricia Su\u00e1rez were there. Everyone was there. We had a glass of champagne in honor of Barcelona<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>In any case, you had a late night, my dear Counselor?<\/p>\n

\u00c1lvaro Noboa:\u00a0 <\/strong>(laughs) A bit, a bit.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>In any case, we\u2019ll let you sleep, we\u2019ll let you get back to sleep.<\/p>\n

\u00c1lvaro Noboa:\u00a0 <\/strong>I\u2019ve got to work very early and I have to campaign. This week I visited two regions. I was in Milagro, and in Empalme, and today I am going to Daule.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>Okay, Counselor, then keep on working. A good bath and then keep on working for Barcelona<\/em> and for the country.<\/p>\n

\u00c1lvaro Noboa:\u00a0 <\/strong>Thank you, thank you very much.\u00a0 Thank you for this great interview, and also for the support that you are giving Barcelona<\/em>. I am doing it for the people of Ecuador, because I think this triumph will bring great happiness to the people of Ecuador.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>Okay, my dear Counselor, thank you. The situation is clear. Thank you very much to Attorney \u00c1lvaro Noboa who has openly supported Barcelona<\/em>. He said it, it\u2019s not a gift, it\u2019s a loan at the time that Barcelona <\/em>needed it. He said that they are going to pay it in two months, in three months, with bank interests.\u00a0 And it\u2019s not to him, but to one of the companies, that is to say, about it being given, \u201cI am giving it to Barcelona <\/em>because I\u2019m in a political campaign.\u201d NOT at all. It\u2019s simply a loan. He is loaning it to the nephews because they are with Barcelona<\/em>. They will return the money with its interest because it\u2019s not being exchanged for advertising. No. It has to be paid back. What I am going to do is to bring in a player for the Copa<\/em>. Who he is going to announce on Noche Amarilla<\/em>. We didn\u2019t know that, it\u2019s a scoop for Radio Sucre<\/em>, my dear economist.<\/p>\n

Oswaldo Calder\u00f3n: <\/strong>\u00a0Very good information! What I liked best was the laugh.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>He was sleeping.<\/p>\n

Oswaldo Calder\u00f3n:\u00a0 <\/strong>He\u2019d been celebrating.<\/p>\n

Vicente Arroba Ditto:\u00a0 <\/strong>Congratulations, my dear Attorney, that they do so, the group of individuals who have supported the team.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
