In Ecuador, environmentalists worry Noboa is unwinding nation's green reputation
BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) — When Ecuadorians voted two years ago to block oil drilling in Yasuni National Park, it was a triumph for environmentalists seeking to protect one of the most biodiverse places on Earth. And it was in character for a country that was first to enshrine the 'rights of nature' in its constitution and is home to parts of the Amazon rain forest and the Galápagos Islands. But recent moves by President Daniel Noboa have alarmed environmentalists and Indigenous leaders who say the country's green reputation — and its protections for civil society — are unraveling. Noboa's administration has moved to scrap the country's independent Environment Ministry. It's pushing legislation ostensibly aimed at choking off illegal mining, but which critics fear will devastate nonprofits. The National Assembly — pressed by Noboa — approved a law last month allowing private and foreign entities to co‑manage conservation zones that critics say weakens protections and threatens Indigenous land rights. And Ecuador just signed a new oil deal with Peru that could accelerate drilling in sensitive areas. Natalia Greene, an environmental advocate with the Global Alliance for the Rights of Nature, said Noboa's decision to fold the Environment Ministry into the Ministry of Energy and Mines will speed up mining just as Ecuador is grappling with a surge in illegal gold mining tied to organized crime. She called it 'like putting the wolf in charge of the sheep.' 'The government's intention is very clear — to be a machine gun of extractivism,' she said. Noboa has defended the ministry moves and other changes as necessary to cut costs, reduce bureaucracy and address Ecuador's financial crisis. Officials argue that consolidating ministries will make decision‑making more efficient. Neither the Ministry of Energy and Mines nor Noboa's office responded to questions from The Associated Press. Indigenous rights at risk In July, Peru and Ecuador signed a deal for Ecuador's state oil company to sell crude directly to Petroperu and link its southern Amazon reserves to Peru's Norperuano pipeline, with drilling eyed for January 2026. Environmental groups say it could fast‑track drilling in sensitive areas while skirting safeguards and Indigenous consultation. Peru's Achuar, Wampis and Chapra nations denounced the plan in a public letter, saying it would gut long-standing protections that require communities be consulted before projects move forward on their lands. They warned the pipeline already averages 146 spills a year and that expanding it would be 'a grave threat to the Amazon and to Indigenous livelihoods.' 'They are going to violate all our rights to enter our territories and extract the resources they want,' said Nemo Guiquita, a Waorani leader with the Confederation of Indigenous Nationalities of the Ecuadorian Amazon. She said Indigenous communities fear a surge of oil and mining projects across ancestral lands, threatening both ecosystems and livelihoods. 'There will be a weakening of environmental protection,' she said. 'There will be a lot of deforestation, contamination of rivers and destruction of the ecosystem, which is vital for our existence as Indigenous peoples.' Ricardo Buitrón, president of the Quito‑based environmental group Accion Ecologica, noted that the changes come just months after Ecuadorians voted to keep oil in the ground in Yasuni, a decision the government has yet to fully enforce. 'We have gone back decades,' he said. 'A development model is being prioritized that does not care about protecting ecosystems, but about extracting natural resources to the maximum.' Fears that proposed law will harm non-governmental organizationsThe proposed law that has alarmed nonprofits is formally called the Organic Law for the Control of Irregular Capital Flows. But activists call it the 'anti-NGO' law, saying it could impose heavy burdens on nonprofits and force many to close. The measure applies to more than 71,000 organizations nationwide, giving them six months to re‑register with the government, submit detailed financial records and disclose foreign funding sources. The government says the law is needed to prevent money laundering and political destabilization. Critics warn it could instead silence dissent by placing organizations under sweeping controls. Noboa submitted the bill to the National Assembly on July 29, giving lawmakers until Aug. 28 to act before it automatically becomes law. 'This has been hard for us,' Guiquita said. 'Practically, Indigenous organizations live mostly from donations and NGOs. The government is weakening us in every space.' 'It represents a threat because they could dissolve us under any pretext,' Buitrón said. 'This reminds us of what we already lived through a decade ago, when they tried to shut down some organizations in the country.' Regional and global stakes Kevin Koenig of Amazon Watch, a U.S.-based nonprofit that advocates for Indigenous rights and environmental protection in the Amazon, said the country's changes are part of a wider rollback. 'We are seeing a sweeping package of regressive reforms that are rolling back environmental protections, Indigenous rights guarantees, and threatening basic civil liberties like the freedom of speech and assembly,' he said. 'What it suggests is the massive expansion of oil and mining, particularly in the Amazon region.' Koenig said the changes send troubling signals ahead of COP30, the United Nations climate summit set for Brazil later this year. Similar trends are unfolding in Peru and El Salvador, where governments have limited environmental oversight, and in Brazil, where licensing for Amazon projects has been weakened. Mobilizing resistance Civil society groups are mobilizing against the changes. Greene said organizations have reactivated the Asamblea Nacional Socioambiental, a national coalition of environmental and social movements, and are planning legal challenges, demonstrations and appeals to international bodies. Many fear Ecuador's role as a global green pioneer is unraveling. 'Our only crime here has been protecting our territory, protecting our traditions, protecting our way of life,' Guiquita said. ___ The Associated Press' climate and environmental coverage receives financial support from multiple private foundations.

Trump gives another country a tariff extension ahead of deadline: Recap
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump introduced last-minute stumbling blocks for several nations seeking reprieves on trade before his reciprocal tariffs begin to go into effect just after midnight. Irked by Canada's support for Palestinian statehood, India's purchases of Russian oil and Brazil's prosecution of its former president, Trump threatened to punish the nations with higher tariffs, regardless of whether the actions directly harm U.S. exports or exacerbate existing trade deficits. In a Truth Social Post, the U.S. president linked Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's announcement that his country would recognize Palestinian statehood to the negotiations with Ottawa to stop a 35% tariff from going into effect at 12:01 am ET on Aug. 1. More: Judges question whether Trump tariffs are authorized by emergency powers "Wow! Canada has just announced that it is backing statehood for Palestine. That will make it very hard for us to make a Trade Deal with them. Oh' Canada!!!" Trump said. Trump has made a flurry of deals with America's trading partners as his Aug. 1 deadline approaches, including agreements with South Korea and Pakistan and a trade pact with the European Union. Other countries that are currently paying a baseline tariff of 10% and have not entered into a separate arrangement with the United States may see their fees go up. Here's where Trump's tariffs and trade negotiations stand: Trump expected to sign executive order Thursday setting new tariffs Trump will sign an executive order during the afternoon or evening of July 31 setting the new tariff rates for countries around the world, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said. Trump has already announced several of those rates, ranging from 50% on imports from Brazil to 15% tariffs on goods from several countries including South Korea and the European Union. In April, Trump imposed a baseline 10% tariff that applied to most countries. Trump has said he is likely to raise the baseline to either 15% or 20% beginning Aug. 1. - Joey Garrison Countries to receive new tariff rates before midnight, White House says White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said countries that have not received notice of their new U.S. reciprocal tariff rates will be alerted by the administration before midnight Aug. 1. 'Tomorrow, Aug. 1, the reciprocal rates will be going into effect,' Leavitt said during a July 31 briefing with reporters. Trump has pointed to Aug. 1 as the marker for higher reciprocal tariffs on goods from nearly 200 countries across the world to go into effect. Trump has already announced new tariff rates for several countries and reached deals with other nations, including Japan, Vietnam and the European Union, that includes their new tariff rates. 'We've sent out 17 letters to countries around the world, and the rest those countries that either do not have a deal or have a letter, they will be hearing from this administration by the business deadline tonight,' Leavitt said. - Joey Garrison Mexico trade deal extended for 90 days Trump says he's giving Mexico another 90 days to come to a longer term agreement with the United States to avoid higher tariffs. After speaking by phone to Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, he said in a Truth Social post that he was extending existing tariffs on Mexico for 90 days, and possibly longer, while the countries continued to negotiate. "The complexities of a Deal with Mexico are somewhat different than other Nations because of both the problems, and assets, of the Border," he said. "We have agreed to extend, for a 90 Day period, the exact same Deal as we had for the last short period of time, namely, that Mexico will continue to pay a 25% Fentanyl Tariff, 25% Tariff on Cars, and 50% Tariff on Steel, Aluminum, and Copper." Trump said that Mexico also agreed to "immediately terminate" all of its non-tariff barriers, without providing further details on that part of the agreement. "There will be continued cooperation on the Border as it relates to all aspects of Security, including Drugs, Drug Distribution, and Illegal Immigration into the United States," he said. Mexico had been facing a 30% tariff on non-exempt goods. - Francesca Chambers Trump admin defends use of emergency power to impose tariffs in federal court President Donald Trump's tariffs may be headed for some rocky legal terrain. U.S. appeals court judges indicated during oral arguments on July 31 that they were skeptical the president has the legal authority to impose tariffs without congressional approval. Department of Justice lawyer Brett Shumate argued in opening remarks that Trump should be able to continue using the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose sweeping tariffs. "But IEEPA has rarely been used, hasn't it," a judge immediately interjected. More: Judges question whether Trump tariffs are authorized by emergency powers Shumate said that since its inception in 1977, the statute has frequently been used by the government. "This is the first time IEEPA has been used for tariffs," Shumate acknowledged. But he said Trump's actions incorporated language that former President Richard Nixon used in 1971 to impose tariffs that were later upheld by the court, and Congress was aware of the case when it passed a law giving the U.S. president emergency powers. - Francesca Chambers/Reuters Trump cites Bolsonaro prosecution in Brazil tariff hike In a July 30 executive order hiking tariffs on Brazil to 50%, he cited the nation's prosecution of former Brazilian president, Jair Bolsonaro, as a reason for higher import fees on some goods. The order moved an earlier deadline for the tariffs to go into effect to Aug. 6. He said that Bolsonaro, who's charged with plotting a coup, had been "politically persecuted." The administration also sanctioned the judge in the case in a separate action on the same day. - Francesca Chambers India in the crosshairs for Russian oil purchases Trump blasted India for purchasing Russian oil, which has helped to prolong Vladimir Putin's war against Ukraine. He said in a social media post that he'd hit India with a 25% tariff. He also took aim at the country's participation in the BRICS economic group. The club rivals the Group of Seven economic alliance for advanced economies and includes Russia, Brazil, China and South Africa. In an overnight post on social media, Trump hit India again — and needled former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. More: Trump's trade talks intensify with tariff deadline fast approaching "I don't care what India does with Russia. They can take their dead economies down together, for all I care. We have done very little business with India, their Tariffs are too high, among the highest in the World," Trump wrote. "Likewise, Russia and the USA do almost no business together. Let's keep it that way, and tell Medvedev, the failed former President of Russia, who thinks he's still President, to watch his words. He's entering very dangerous territory!" Medvedev had previously issued a sharp warning to Trump over his threats to put steep tariffs on purchasers Russian oil. "Each new ultimatum is a threat and a step towards war. Not between Russia and Ukraine, but with (Trump's) own country," the former Russian president said. - Francesca Chambers U.S. closes in on a China deal Trump's administration has continued negotiate with China, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said in a July 31 interview with CNBC that the United States' believes a deal is close at hand. "I believe that we have the makings of a deal," Bessent said. Bessent was expected to update Trump on the status of negotiations later in the day. China faces an Aug. 12 deadline to reach an agreement with the United States. The tariffs will also face a key legal test this week as the U.S. Court of Appeals hears arguments in a case challenging Trump's authority to tap into emergency powers to impose unilateral tariffs. "If our Country was not able to protect itself by using TARIFFS AGAINST TARIFFS, WE WOULD BE 'DEAD,' WITH NO CHANCE OF SURVIVAL OR SUCCESS," Trump said on social media ahead of oral arguments. - Francesca Chambers This article originally appeared on USA TODAY: Midnight deadline looms for countries facing Trump tariffs
