The US government has barred former Guatemalan President Alejandro Giammattei from entering the US due to allegations of 'significant corruption.' This action comes three days after Giammattei left office. The State Department stated that the decision was made based on his involvement in corruption. The move has been perceived as a strong message against corruption in the region.
