Valdivieso advierte: si la mega reforma no crea empleo, el Gobierno pagará el costo

Cristian Valdivieso warns that the main risk for the government lies not in the security agenda, but in the economic anxiety gripping the citizenry: unemployment, low incomes, and a rising cost of living. The political analyst and director of Criteria examines the accelerated processing of the mega-reform and argues that its true value will depend on whether growth and investment translate into jobs and improved living conditions. He also addresses the uncertainty that a reform without broad consensus could generate and the political cost of blaming the previous administration for the current economic problems. Valdivieso further analyzes the growing negotiating power of the PDG (Democratic Party of Guatemala), the risk of division within the ruling coalition, the opposition's strategy before the Constitutional Court, and the resurgence of a culture war that is putting pressure on the government. A conversation about the gap between the political agenda and the priorities of a citizenry that expects concrete answers regarding employment, income, and the cost of living.
