Guatemala: Riot police deployed after ex-soldiers storm congress building over wartime bonus claims
19.10.2021
Guatemala City, Guatemala / Ciudad de Guatemala
Dutzende von Polizisten und Feuerwehrleuten waren vor dem Nationalkongress in Guatemala-Stadt im Einsatz, nachdem eine Gruppe ehemaliger Soldaten das Gelände am Dienstag gestürmt hatte.
Hunderte ehemaliger Militärangehöriger stürmten auf das Gelände der gesetzgebenden Körperschaft des Landes, um eine Entschädigung für ihre Dienste in der Armee während des Bürgerkriegs von 1960 bis 1996 zu fordern.
Die Veteranen, die offenbar Macheten, Stöcke und Steine bei sich trugen, stürmten das Parlamentsgebäude, wo sie Parlamentsbüros, fünf Autos und drei Motorräder in Brand setzten, wie Beamte, die vor Ort waren, berichteten. Viele der Angreifer flohen oder wurden von Sicherheitskräften, die zum Tatort eilten, vertrieben.
Eine angemessene wirtschaftliche Entschädigung für Bürgerkriegsveteranen war eines der Wahlkampfversprechen des guatemaltekischen Präsidenten Alejandro Giammattei in seinem Wahlkampf 2019.
Dozens of police and firefighters responded outside the National Congress in Guatemala City after a group of ex-soldiers stormed the area on Tuesday.
Hundreds of ex-military personnel rushed into the grounds of the country's legislative body to demand compensation for their services in the army during the 1960-1996 civil war.
The veterans, who were apparently carrying machetes, sticks and stones, stormed the parliamentary building where they burned legislative offices, five cars and three motorbikes, according to officials who attended the scene. Many of the attackers either fled or were forced out by security forces who were rushed to the scene.
Adequate economic compensation for veterans of the civil war was one of Guatemalan President Alejandro Giammattei's campaign promises in his 2019 election campaign.
Decenas de policías y bomberos acudieron al exterior del Congreso Nacional en Ciudad de Guatemala después de que un grupo de ex soldados irrumpiera en el recinto el martes.
Cientos de ex militares irrumpieron en el recinto del órgano legislativo del país para exigir una compensación por sus servicios en el ejército durante la guerra civil de 1960 a 1996.
Los veteranos, que al parecer llevaban machetes, palos y piedras, asaltaron el edificio parlamentario donde quemaron oficinas legislativas, cinco coches y tres motos, según los funcionarios que acudieron al lugar. Muchos de los atacantes huyeron o fueron obligados a salir por las fuerzas de seguridad que acudieron al lugar.
Una compensación económica adecuada para los veteranos de la guerra civil fue una de las promesas del presidente guatemalteco Alejandro Giammattei en su campaña electoral de 2019.
