Ecuador expels the Mexican ambassador after López Obrador's controversial statements about the assassination of Villavicencio. The explosion will be carried out in "short notice", although 72 hours are normally provided for them to leave the country.

Relations between the two countries were already very tense due to the support given by the Mexican government to Jorge Glas, former vice president of Rafael Correa. The scuffle that Mexico and Colombia also had with the Argentine president, Javier Milei, seems resolved at least for now.
