A Cabinet That Promised “Change” But Fell Into Crisis

Bernardo Arevalo’s government came to power promising a “democratic spring.” However, the reality of his first year in office paints a very different picture: scandals, mass dismissals, and poor budget execution.

Nine Officials Dismissed in Less Than a Year

In just a few months, at least nine high-ranking officials have left the cabinet under serious allegations. One of the most notorious cases was María José Iturbide, former Minister of Environment, dismissed after it was revealed her daughter used official vehicles and state security for personal errands.

Another case was Félix Alvarado, former Minister of Communications, who resigned due to “differences with the president.” Shortly afterward, the Public Ministry raided his offices, hinting at internal conflict and possible irregularities.

Budget Inefficiency: Numbers Don’t Lie

The Ministries of Agriculture, Culture, and Communications show ineffective management with execution levels below 61%. This, despite the country’s urgent needs in infrastructure, food security, and cultural development.

Arévalo has attempted to justify the departure of officials as part of a “technical restructuring,” but the facts reveal a deep governance crisis and a lack of strong leadership in his team.

Media Silence and Ideological Accomplices

Despite the scale of the scandals, outlets like Plaza Pública, Prensa Comunitaria, and CNN have chosen to minimize or ignore these facts. The narrative of “progressive hope” doesn’t withstand the scrutiny of data or evidence.

Instead of promoting transparent governance, Arévalo has shielded certain ministers aligned with the ideological agenda of foreign NGOs and globalist allies. Impunity and double standards are now the trademarks of this so-called “new government.”
