Guatemala: The Rise of Bernardo Arévalo and the Illusion of Change
Bernardo Arévalo’s Guatemala victory reveals his ties to the US and pseudo-left, prompting scrutiny of his commitment to genuine change
In a narrative that oscillates between intrigue and significance, Bernardo Arévalo’s recent victory in Guatemala’s presidential runoff elections has captured attention.
