On March 4, 2026, Ecuador declared Cuban Ambassador Basilio Antonio Gutiérrez García and about two dozen embassy staff persona non grata, giving them 48 hours to leave.

The moves followed joint U.S.-Ecuadorian operations against terrorists and narco-traffickers, with no specific reason stated by officials, though reactions divided sharply between supporters praising the stand against Cuba's government and critics calling it U.S. subservience. Noboa shared footage of the document burning on X, captioning it 'Parrillada de papeles'—a jab likening it to a barbecue.
