Paraguay President Peña Impeached Amid Ueno Bank Collapse, Vice President Sworn InPreviousNext

Paraguay's President Santiago Peña was impeached and placed under house arrest following the collapse of Ueno Bank, which left nearly three million customers unable to access their savings. Lawmakers accused Peña of misconduct, including conflicts of interest and misuse of public funds linked to the bank. Despite Peña's resignation offer, the Senate proceeded with impeachment, removing his immunity and enabling criminal investigations. Vice President Pedro Alliana was sworn in as interim president to serve until 2028 amid ongoing efforts to compensate affected depositors and stabilize the financial system.
