Paraguayan president impeached minutes after resigning following bank collapse

Paraguayan president impeached minutes after resigning following bank collapse

What's behind this

Paraguay’s lower house voted unanimously, a 78‑0 count, to impeach President Santiago Peña minutes after he announced his resignation, following the collapse of Ueno Bank, a major digital lender linked to his government that froze millions of savings. The crisis prompted allegations of financial misconduct, a central bank intervention, and three days of protests that saw demonstrators flood the capital, Asunción. Lawmakers from Peña’s long‑ruling Colorado Party joined the opposition in supporting the impeachment.
