Guatemala — 항의: 평화로운 시위

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. On March 31, 2025, health workers in Guatemala blocked the Interamerican highway near km 187 in Totonicapan for approximately eight hours, demanding salary increases as part of a nationwide healthcare worker protest. The roadblock was lifted after negotiations with authorities.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates. The eight-hour duration suggests limited immediate disruption to through-traffic on this section of the Interamerican highway, though any extension of similar protests to other highway segments could affect regional goods movement.

Watch points

• Monitor for expansion of healthcare worker protests to other highway segments or major transportation corridors
• Track whether salary negotiations lead to resolution or further labor action across Guatemala's public sector
