flag An international tribunal ordered Ecuador to pay Chevron $220 million, backing the company's claim over environmental damage in the Amazon.

flag An international tribunal has ordered Ecuador to pay Chevron $220 million, citing violations of investment protections, in a decades-long dispute over environmental damage in the Amazon linked to Texaco’s operations. flag The ruling, which upholds Chevron’s use of investor-state arbitration, draws criticism for undermining a prior $9.5 billion Ecuadorian court judgment that found the company liable for pollution harming Indigenous communities. flag Advocates argue the decision favors corporate interests over environmental justice and could set a precedent that weakens national sovereignty in environmental cases.
