AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Ecuador Security: Ecuador’s National Police seized 1.2 tons of cocaine in Guayaquil hidden in 1,080 fruit boxes bound for Spain, with authorities valuing the haul at about $37.6m (US) and $58.6m (Europe). Ecuador Justice: Prosecutors charged seven people over the 2023 assassination of presidential candidate Fernando Villavicencio, including former Interior Minister José Serrano and alleged Los Lobos-linked mastermind Wilmer Chavarría (“Pipo”). Regional Politics & Trade: The US pledged a $1bn “security package” to Colombia on the first day of President Abelardo de la Espriella, signaling support for his hardline crackdown on drug cartels and illegal migration. Football Governance: UEFA, AFC and CONCACAF launched a fresh pushback against FIFA chief Gianni Infantino over his shelved plan to sell a stake in World Cup commercial rights, calling for an independent review and warning of possible tournament boycotts. Ecuador Economy & Finance: Ecuador’s Central Bank is developing an instant payments system similar to Brazil’s Pix, aiming to modernize retail transactions. Sports (Ecuador link): Hull City is weighing a loan move for Ecuador midfielder Oscar Zambrano after a hamstring injury complicates his early season plans.
