VOICED: Condena a periodistas en Ecuador

The Supreme Court of Ecuador confirmed a three-year prison sentence and a $40 million fine against three directors of El Universo newspaper, following a libel lawsuit by President Rafael Correa. The decision, which could lead to the newspaper's closure, has sparked global outrage among press freedom advocates. Correa had previously stated he would drop the charges if El Universo apologized for an article portraying him as a human rights violator. The case has strained relations between Correa and the Ecuadorian press, with El Universo's director seeking asylum in Panama.
