It has been a chaotic week for the diplomatic relations between Ecuador and Mexico. Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa announced on Monday the introduction of a 27% tariff on all imported goods from Mexico as part of what he described as efforts to promote fair treatment for his country's companies.
Less than 24 hours since the announcement, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum responded by minimizing the damage the measure could inflict on the country's economy.
