💨 Abstract
The U.S. State Department has barred former Ecuador President Rafael Correa and Vice President Jorge Glas from entering the U.S., citing corruption. Both officials accepted bribes in exchange for favorable government contracts, according to the department. They have been convicted of corruption in Ecuador and have denied the accusations. The former president lives in Belgium, while the former vice president is imprisoned in Ecuador.
