Paraguay President Resigns Amid Banking Crisis and Faces Impeachment Proceedings
Paraguayan President Santiago Peña resigned amid a banking crisis triggered by the collapse of digital lender Ueno Bank, which froze the savings of around three million people, nearly half the population. The Central Bank seized Ueno due to solvency issues, sparking widespread protests and political turmoil. Peña, who had past business ties to the bank's controlling group, faced impeachment over alleged conflicts of interest and misuse of public funds. Despite his resignation, Congress has yet to accept it, proceeding with impeachment and criminal investigations. Vice President Pedro Alliana is expected to assume office pending formalities.
