Costa Rican Foreign Minister Fired for Attending Trump-Led Meeting Without President's ConsentPreviousNext

Costa Rica's President Laura Fernandez dismissed Foreign Minister Manuel Tovar after he attended a regional security meeting led by US President Donald Trump without informing her, which prevented her participation. The meeting involved several right-wing Latin American leaders and focused on the Shield of the Americas, an anti-cartel coalition initiated by the Trump administration. Tovar expressed gratitude for his service and highlighted the importance of the UN High-Level Week and the potential election of Rebeca Grynspan as UN Secretary-General.
