AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Drug Enforcement: Ecuador’s National Police seized 1.2 tons of cocaine in Guayaquil, hidden in 1,080 fruit boxes bound for Spain, with authorities estimating about 12.5 million doses and valuing the haul at roughly $37.6m in the US and $58.6m in Europe. Prosecutors Move in High-Profile Case: Ecuador’s Prosecutor’s Office charged seven people over the 2023 assassination plot against presidential candidate Fernando Villavicencio, naming figures including former Interior Minister José Serrano, former lawmaker Ronny Aleaga, businessman Xavier Jordan, and alleged Los Lobos gang links. Regional Security & Trade Signals: The US announced a $1bn security assistance package for Colombia shortly after President Abelardo de la Espriella took office, underscoring Washington’s support for his hardline crackdown on drug trafficking and armed groups. Sports Governance Watch: FIFA chief Gianni Infantino drew fresh backing from South American football leaders during his Colombia visit, even as calls for his resignation continue amid FIFA’s turmoil.
