Guatemala completó este domingo siete días de protestas, mientras organizaciones campesinas anunciaron un “paro indefinido” para exigir la renuncia de la fiscal general, Consuelo Porras, a quien acusan de fraguar un “golpe de Estado” contra el presidente electo Bernardo Arévalo.

“En consenso hemos decidido fortalecer las acciones de protesta en el paro nacional indefinido en todos los territorios de Guatemala”, consignó el Comité de Desarrollo Campesino (Codeca), en la red social X, antes Twitter.

Codeca, una organización que también aglutina indígenas, adelantó que participará en el cierre de carreteras en 52 puntos en todos los departamentos del país.
