Ecuador's government has lifted a state of emergency amid an Indigenous-led strike

Protesters rally to show their support for the recent protests and national strike against the government of President Guillermo Lasso in Quito, Ecuador, on June 25, 2022.

Ecuador's largest Indigenous organization began a strike two weeks ago to demand gasoline prices be cut, price controls be imposed on agricultural products and a larger budget be set for education.
