Ecuadorans President Rafael Correa appointed Tourism Minister Maria Isabel Salvador as the country's top diplomat Friday after her predecessor resigned the previous day.
Salvador was sworn in as the new foreign minister at a cabinet meeting to succeed Maria Fernanda Espinosa, who tendered her formal resignation Thursday. A government spokeswoman said she resigned for personal reasons.
Espinosa acknowledged certain problems in the foreign ministry, but denied having problems with President Correa, saying she is willing to continue collaborating with him in the citizen revolution project he is carrying out.
