U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem met with Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa in the coastal city of Manta to examine the capacity of a former U.S. military installation that could support future joint operations.
Ecuadorean Foreign Minister Gabriela Sommerfeld said the visit included "a tour to learn about its operational capabilities, the condition of its facilities, the technical specifications of the runways, and the type of aircraft that can operate there."
