Diplomacy
Save
Change
Ecuador declared Cuban diplomatic personnel persona non grata, ordered their withdrawal within 48 hours, and Cuba closed its embassy in Quito.
Why it matters
The expulsion removes in-country diplomatic and consular operations, forcing all engagement to shift to indirect or third-country channels.
Implications
  • — Consular services cease immediately — visa and assistance access disrupted
  • — Governments must use third-country channels — coordination slows
