In Peru, the Prime Minister has ruled out financial support for the state oil firm Petroperu, which is facing a deepening crisis and has requested $2 billion in funds. The firm's bonds have subsequently tumbled. Ecuador is addressing organized crime by arresting 68 suspected gang members linked to an attempt to take over a hospital. President Daniel Noboa has declared a 60-day state of emergency, which has led to a decrease in violent murders. He is also seeking financial support from the U.S. and Europe and plans to extend the output from an oil block to finance the ongoing war against the gangs.
