'Ecuador defaults on debt to Perenco-
"Perenco Ecuador Ltd. has said that the Ecuadorian government has failed to pay the amount it owes to Perenco for having expropriated Perenco’s investment more than a decade ago.
Over 10 years ago, Ecuador imposed a law to take an additional participation in Perenco’s oil production from Blocks 7 and 21, seized Perenco’s oil production and took over the blocks.
On 27 September 2019, an international arbitration tribunal constituted under the France-Ecuador Bilateral Investment Treaty and the World Bank’s International Centre for the Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID)
issued a Final Award holding that Ecuador had violated international law and its participation contracts with Perenco. The tribunal awarded Perenco substantial compensation. In May 2021, an ICSID annulment committee rejected Ecuador’s attempt to annul the entire award and confirmed that Ecuador owes Perenco a net amount of US$391 million.
Under Article 53 of the ICSID Convention, the award is immediately enforceable in more than 150 countries. Ecuador’s Minister of Economy and Finance made a specific undertaking to the ICSID committee on behalf of the State that Ecuador would pay the Award “unconditionally, voluntarily and in full, within 60 days” of the issuance of the ICSID annulment committee’s decision.
That 60-day period has now expired, meaning that Ecuador is therefore now in full default on its obligations under the Award, the ICSID Convention and its own undertaking....." -

(there will be no significant improvement in Ecu until this addressed and resolved once and for all, very similar issues up NA way too, Ecu mini state likes to monkey see monkey doo big brother brothel USSA in so many ways:) 03DEC25- #Ecuador ⚖ 'Life imprisonment! For corrupt judges & lawyers- "...So, let's use the same logic with my "buddies." If as a lawyer you are found guilty of having bribed a judge or prosecutor or you are that judge or prosecutor bribed, it is impossible for us to think that it is coherent that we can once again entrust them with their participation in the system of administration of justice.
A corrupt judge, lawyer or prosecutor must be banned for life from practicing the profession. Let them go out to sweep streets or pass cafes, but in this profession they cannot participate again. Because without Justice there is no State and they have made sure that Ecuador is a failed State.
But I am more radical: I propose that the perpetual inability to practice the profession ...
