AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Maya History Breakthrough: Archaeologists in Guatemala have identified the name of Sak Tahn Waax, an 8th-century Maya astronomer-mathematician, preserved in Xultun hieroglyphs—an early named “scientist” in the Americas. Guatemala-UK Partnership: Guatemala has chosen the UK as a partner to explore financing for Metro Riel, a major transport project aimed at improving connections across Guatemala City’s metro area. Border Security: Guatemalan forces in Melchor de Mencos seized 180,000 cigarettes—likely smuggled from a Belize free zone—after smugglers fled, abandoning the contraband near the riverbank. Environment & Tourism Pressure: Lake Atitlán is facing serious decline, and one local eco-entrepreneur is urging visitors to support restoration efforts rather than just enjoy the scenery. Global Business Watch: Uber announced an acquisition offer for Delivery Hero, expanding its delivery footprint to 99 markets. Immigration Spotlight (US): Reports say ICE detained more than 650 children in California during Trump’s second-term deportation crackdown, with many arrests happening in the state’s interior.
