"Mexico Cuts Diplomatic Ties with Ecuador Following Embassy Raid"

Mexico's President Andrés Manuel López Obrador announced the breaking off of diplomatic ties with Ecuador after police raided the Mexican embassy in Quito to arrest former Ecuadorian vice president Jorge Glas, who has sought political asylum there. The arrest, related to corruption charges, has led to a deepening diplomatic rift between the two countries, with Mexico condemning the action as a violation of international law and sovereignty. The incident has resulted in injuries to Mexican diplomats, and Mexico plans to take the case to the International Court of Justice, while Ecuador has declared the Mexican ambassador persona non grata in response to tensions over recent statements made by the Mexican president about Ecuador's last elections.
