"Ecuador's Former Vice President Hospitalized After Hunger Strike Amid Embassy Raid Fallout"

Former Ecuadorian Vice President Jorge Glas has begun a hunger strike in prison after being arrested following a controversial raid at Mexico's embassy in Quito, where he sought political asylum. The raid has sparked international condemnation, with the Organization of American States approving a resolution condemning Ecuador's actions. Ecuador's Permanent Representative to the OAS defended the raid, arguing that Mexico violated the Vienna Convention by granting asylum to Glas, who is accused of embezzling government funds and is seen by his team as a victim of political persecution.
