AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Political Violence: Anti-corruption lawyer and former prosecutor Juan Francisco Solórzano Foppa was shot dead at a Guatemala City sports complex on Oct. 17; another man was also killed. Two men arrested in the case were released without charge, and authorities have yet to establish a motive. Human Rights Watch is urging a prompt, credible investigation into who carried out and ordered the killings. Climate and Farming: Heifer International plans to help 16,000 farming families in Guatemala, Honduras and Ecuador prepare for severe drought and flooding linked to El Niño. Guatemala’s coffee harvest is forecast to fall 10% as drought hits growing regions. Regional Sports: Belize is sending 34 athletes to Guatemala for the CODICADER Disability Games, scheduled for Oct. 25–31. Business: Spanish optical retailer MO Global plans to enter Guatemala in 2027 as part of a wider Central American expansion.
