Ecuador’s raid on the Mexican embassy in Quito has led Mexico to seek emergency measures from the International Court of Justice (ICJ). However, ICJ presiding judge Nawaf Salam has stated that Ecuador had already promised to protect the Mexican diplomatic premises and residences, so there was no immediate need for additional court orders.
The case regarding the raid and protection of diplomatic premises has been closely monitored by the ICJ. Mexico had sought emergency measures against Ecuador to ensure the protection of the embassy and the residences of Mexican diplomats following the breach of international law during the raid last month. The incident occurred during the arrest of Ecuadorean President Correa’s former Vice President Jorge Glas, who was living in the Mexican embassy since December. He was captured on April 5 by Ecuadorean police shortly after being granted asylum status by Mexico.
Despite Mexico’s concerns, the court decided that Ecuador’s assurances of protection were enough to address the situation, and no further emergency measures were deemed necessary.
