Paraguay President Santiago Peña resigns

According to ABC News, Paraguay President Santiago Peña resigned following a bank collapse. The BBC reported that the move followed a bank collapse and a vote by the lower house of congress in favour of pursuing an impeachment trial against him. Al Jazeera English said Peña, a Trump ally, had faced an impeachment motion and protests after the collapse of the digital lender Ueno. Euronews reported that an accounting black hole at Ueno Bank wiped out public funds and left thousands without access to their deposits, driving Paraguay into its worst institutional crisis in years. The sources agree on the resignation and the bank collapse, though they give different accounts of the immediate trigger. Summary from 4 sources

Sources differ: The BBC and Al Jazeera link the resignation to an impeachment process, while ABC News and Euronews do not mention impeachment.
