Ex-Ecuadorian president gets 5 years for corruption
The available information is limited to the news of the five-year prison sentence handed down to former Ecuadorian President Lenin Moreno, in a case related to his receipt of bribes from a Chinese company involved in constructing the country's largest hydroelectric dam, the "Coca Codo Sinclair" dam, executed by the company "Cenohidro." Moreno (73 years old) received this sentence after being convicted, among 20 individuals charged in the case. Moreno previously served as Vice President of Ecuador from 2007 to 2013, and he succeeded Rafael Correa as President in 2017, but he distanced himself from Correa after forming a right-wing government and pledging to strengthen relations with the United States.
