Paraguay places president under house arrest and swears in new one in two days

Paraguayan President Peña lost support due to a banking crisis, leading to his impeachment by the Senate. Despite announcing his resignation, the Senate rejected it, initiating an impeachment process that removes his legal protections. The crisis, triggered by the collapse of Ueno bank, affected millions of Paraguayans, sparking protests. New President Alliana promised compensation for victims, while the central bank began reimbursing affected account holders. Peña remains under house arrest as the prosecution prepares charges against him for misconduct related to the bank's failure.
