The 2019 Ecuadorian Riots were a series of violent riots against Austerity measures including the cancellation of fuel Subsidies, adopted by President of Ecuador Lenín Moreno and his administration. Organized protests ceased after indigenous groups and the Ecuadorian Government reached a deal to reverse the austerity measures, beginning a collaboration on how to combat overspending and public debt.
