Last update: 7 hours ago

U.S.-Ecuador Anti-Drug Row: More than 20 U.S. lawmakers demand the Pentagon halt joint anti-drug operations with Ecuador’s northern border forces, citing New York Times reporting that civilians were allegedly interrogated, assaulted, tortured, and that a target site appeared to be a dairy farm before an airstrike. Diplomacy Under Pressure: Ecuador’s President Daniel Noboa met U.S. VP JD Vance in Washington as tensions with Colombia deepen after tariff escalations and border disputes. Ecuador’s Fuel Crunch: Ecuador’s cities are still seeing long gas lines and limits on cheap Ecopaís, with the government blaming hoarding and announcing control measures after the May 11 price update. World Cup Logistics, Ecuador Included: Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City is set for six pool matches, including Ecuador’s game next week, while New York/New Jersey offers visa-bond relief for some foreign ticket holders. Food Security Watch: UN agencies warn El Niño could worsen hunger and food insecurity across Latin America and the Caribbean. Economy & Industry: Ecuador’s shrimp chamber is pitching investment, and a major cocaine shipment was seized at Greece’s Piraeus port after arriving from Ecuador.
