ICJ Declines Mexico's Request for Emergency Measures Against Ecuador

The court ruled that Ecuador's assurances to protect the Mexican embassy address immediate concerns, while the broader case continues.

The ICJ rejected Mexico's plea for immediate protective measures for its embassy in Quito.
Ecuador's raid on the Mexican embassy to arrest ex-Vice President Jorge Glas sparked the legal dispute.
Mexico sought to suspend Ecuador from the UN and demanded a public apology.
Ecuador's counter-complaint accuses Mexico of misusing its diplomatic mission to shield a criminal.
The broader case on the legality of the raid and diplomatic protections may take years to resolve.
