Ecuador has defended its storming of the Mexican embassy in Quito last month. Its lawyers told judges at the International Court of Justice that the country acted to arrest ‘a common criminal’. Security forces arrested Ecuador’s former vice president, Jorge Glas, who had been granted political asylum by Mexico.
Al Jazeera’s Manuel Rapalo reports.

Wow!
El presidente de mi país Ecuador me avergüenza
Ecuador is going to get laughed out of the court.
Love Ecuador approach. No holds barred against Cartels. Everyone else should take example.
What Cartels have to do with this?. Ecuador’s Cartels didn’t invade the Mexican Embassy?
@@Deonara is all about fighting criminals. That why storm embassy
You can’t simply raid an embassy. You’re basically attacking a nation by doing that.
@@bububixby7466 if America done this long time ago to all the Narco States then we not be in the sorry state we in. Instead we waste our time in ME for Israel.
Listen, son, and be wise,
and turn your heart to the way of righteousness.
The rich president of Ecuador should be held accountable, not its people!!!
Embassy must never be a hideout for criminals .
Host country must have right to enter embassies
What does this have to do with Gaza?
Nothing?
Why do two Spanish speaking countries have to settle their dispute in an english speaking court. Don’t we have spanish speaking judges and shouldn’t an international court of justice have multi language oficials and translators?
