The US has imposed visa restrictions on nearly 300 Guatemalans over 'anti-democratic actions.' The action targets private sector representatives and their family members, following Guatemala's Public Ministry's announcement of arrest warrants for electoral workers and party representatives, requesting to annul electoral results, and seeking to remove the immunity of President-elect Bernardo Arevalo. The US condemns these actions and supports Arevalo's center-left Seed Movement party, which has faced investigations over alleged irregularities in party registration.
