Ecuadorian police broke into the Mexican Embassy late Friday to arrest a former Ecuadorian vice president who sought political asylum.
Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador speaks during his morning press conference at the National Palace in Mexico City, on May 31, 2019. Mexico 's government ended diplomatic ties with Ecuador after police broke into the Mexican Embassy late Friday to arrest a former Ecuador ian vice president, an extraordinary use of force that shocked and mystified regional leaders and diplomats.
"This is not possible. It cannot be. This is crazy," Roberto Canseco, head of the Mexican consular section in Quito, told local press while standing outside the embassy right after the raid. "I am very worried because they could kill him. There is no basis to do this. This is totally outside the norm."
Alicia Bárcena, Mexico's secretary of foreign relations, posted on the social platform X that a number of diplomats suffered injuries during the break-in, adding that it violated the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations. The Organization of American States in a statement reminded its members, which include Ecuador and Mexico, of their "obligation" to not "invoke norms of domestic law to justify non-compliance with their international obligations."
Freeman added that whether Glas was abusing diplomatic protection is a "separate issue" from the decision to send police to the embassy.
