🚨 Crisis in Paraguay: Santiago Peña resigns as president and seeks special legal immunity
According to reporting by GloboNews international commentator Ariel Palácios, the move was designed to shield the former president from investigations into the financial scandal involving the collapse of digital bank Ueno.
Behind the scenes in Asunción’s institutions, Peña’s strategy is based on the Paraguayan Constitution, which guarantees former presidents lifetime senator status. By securing lifetime immunity from prosecution, the former head of state is trying to neutralize the judiciary’s pursuit of investigations into the financial operations and collapse of the digital institution that shook local confidence.
For global trading desks and portfolio managers, this kind of institutional instability in Latin America reinforces a technically *bearish* sentiment. Amid macroeconomic risk aversion, political stress erodes regulatory predictability, putting pressure on regional liquidity and prompting extreme caution in capital flows into risk assets and crypto assets such as $BTC .
