“Ecuador’s President Daniel Noboa was officially sworn in on Saturday following his reelection for another four-year term early this year. Noboa, 37, who wore a presidential sash over his chest, was sworn in alongside his Vice President María José Pinto and their terms will run until May 2029. The young president, who has become known for his fight against a surge of armed group violence in the South American country, pledged in his inauguration speech to continue to tackle corruption, drug trafficking and violent crime. He also swore to implement reforms and said he would lay ‘a solid foundation for job creation and investment’ by working with Ecuador’s private sector. ‘We are at the doorstep of four years of progress,’ he said. The ceremony in the capital, Quito, was attended by U.S. Health Secretary Robert Kennedy, Colombia’s President Gustavo Petro, Peruvian President Dina Boluarte, and many other international guests and delegates.” (05/24/25)
