Millions of Paraguayans lost access to their savings when a major bank tied closely to the president collapsed Friday. The nation's president was impeached and removed from office following the banking crisis. The institution, which had deep administrative connections, failed amid widespread economic hardship, leaving citizens unable to recover deposits and destabilizing the country's financial system.
The removal marks a significant political shift during one of Paraguay's most severe economic crises.
