Ecuador's President Daniel Noboa has taken robust measures to enhance national security in light of destabilization from armed groups. With federal elections imminent, he announced a 27-percent tariff on Mexican imports and a three-day border closure. Noboa’s initiatives aim to project strength and stability, paralleling tactics used by U.S. President Donald Trump. By militarizing ports and increasing military presence at borders, Noboa seeks to mitigate threats and garner support from constituents as he faces a competitive re-election campaign against Luisa Gonzalez.
Noboa's stance on tariffs and border security reflects a hardline approach aimed at restoring stability amidst concerns of escalating violence from armed groups.
In a bid to combat destabilization, President Noboa announced a series of policies, including significant tariffs on Mexican imports and a temporary closure of borders.
