Ecuador is currently embroiled in a diplomatic crisis following the storming of the Mexican embassy in Quito to arrest former Vice President Jorge Glas. The controversial figure, who had been seeking asylum in the embassy, was apprehended late Friday night, prompting Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador to suspend diplomatic ties with Quito.
The arrest of Glas has been condemned by leaders across Latin America, with many denouncing it as a violation of international law and diplomatic norms. The incident has sparked outrage in the region, with countries like Brazil, Argentina, and Nicaragua joining Mexico in severing diplomatic relations with Ecuador.
