The fact that Bernardo Arévalo managed after a nine-hour delay to be inaugurated as president in Guatemala very early Monday morning, together with his vice-president, suggests that there is at least some hope that the corrupt elites that have deprived the citizens of Guatemala of so much opportunity, prosperity, and freedom for so many years can finally be out-maneuvered, and Guatemala placed tentatively on a positive path to improved development.
Guatemala is one of my favorite countries. The people desperately need a decent government. It’s the least that the US can do after the havoc it’s caused over the decades.
Thank you for this informative post, information which I am not finding easily elsewhere.
