Read moreEcuadorian President Guillermo Lasso has been accused by his predecessor, Rafael Correa, of a variety of crimes, including corruption, money laundering, and influence peddling. Correa, who is currently living in exile in Belgium, has called for Lasso's impeachment and is calling for the prosecution of the current president. Correa's allegations have been met with fierce denial by Lasso and his supporters. They argue that Correa is simply trying to distract from his own legal troubles and that his accusations are politically motivated. Correa's accusations have also been met with skepticism by many in Ecuador. Some commentators have pointed out that Correa himself was accused of corruption while he was in office and that his accusations against Lasso are likely politically motivated. Others have argued that Correa's accusations should be taken seriously and that Lasso should be investigated. The accusations against Lasso come at a time when Ecuador is facing a number of challenges, including economic instability, political polarization, and high levels of crime. The ongoing political crisis is likely to further destabilize the country and make it more difficult to address these challenges. It remains to be seen whether Correa's accusations will lead to Lasso's impeachment or whether the accusations will simply add to the already high levels of political tension in Ecuador.
