The deputy of the unionist bloc, Álvaro Enrique Arzú Escobar, recovered his visa to travel to the United States, after Washington forbade him to enter his territory in 2023, official sources reported.

Arzú Escobar has not confirmed that he recovered his visa; However, this Thursday, February 27, he published in his X account a photograph posing in a amusement park in Orlando, Florida.

“We Meet Again -we find again -” #40 years says the message published by the parliamentarian, who poses sitting in a bank with characteristic characters of said amusement park.

Arzú Escobar confirmed on December 13, 2023 that the United States had removed the visa to enter that country and said it was because he voted in favor of withdrawing immunity to the magistrates of the Supreme Electoral Court (TSE).

On that occasion, the parliamentarian said that he wanted to understand why he generated so much uproar and so much concern for the issue of visa withdrawal.

Arzú Escobar said on that occasion that the withdrawal of the United States visa went to all the deputies who voted to withdraw the right of prejudice to the magistrates of the TSE for possible acts of overvaluation in a purchase, and said that this issue has nothing to do with the electoral result.

Last December 11, The United States Department of State informed that almost 300 Guatemalan citizens, including more than one hundred members of the Guatemalan Congress, as well as representatives of the private sector and its family members “for undermining democracy and the rule of law.”
