WOLA and RFK Human Rights Concerned About Pre-electoral Conditions in Guatemala

On June 25, 2023, Guatemala will hold general elections for president, legislators, and mayors in a context of deteriorating human, civil, and electoral rights. As part of our efforts to assess the pre-electoral conditions in the months leading up to election day, WOLA, RFKHR and HRW visited Guatemala City from April 17 through April 21, 2023. The delegation met with civil society, public officials, independent press, diplomatic corps, and the United Nations to gather information and discuss the main issues and challenges with regards to the upcoming elections.
