"On Saturday, an important social movement arose in the country... driven by the workers, by the students, by the population who come together in the square to demand justice."
2/ EXCLUSIVE - PART II: Live from Guatemala with @MSICG:

"They come together in the face of state policies that respond solely and exclusively to the business sector of the country. In the face of a state that has not taken measures to prevent the death of the population."
3/ EXCLUSIVE - PART II: Live from Guatemala with @MSICG:

"Guatemala has gone from a formal democracy to a full-blown dictatorship. And it is very important that the international community is clear about what we are living in the country. This is no longer a democratic regime."
END/ EXCLUSIVE - PART II: Live from Guatemala with @MSICG:

"The people have come to the plaza to demand the separation of powers, a National Constituent Assembly, the immediate resignation of the President of the Republic."
