Guatemala and Ecuador Elections: Different Results, Similar Challenges

In the recent elections in Guatemala and Ecuador, both countries faced similar issues of corruption and violence. Bernardo Arevalo won the presidency in Guatemala with a focus on tackling corruption and violence, while Ecuador's elections had a more divided outcome. Louisa Gonzales, a protege of exiled former president Rafael Correa, garnered the most votes, while Daniel Nubor, a candidate from a wealthy family, presented an investment-friendly approach. These results suggest that citizens in both countries are seeking meaningful change, but the paths they choose to tackle their problems differ.
