answer text
<p>The UK has been a vocal advocate of the anti-corruption efforts and the valuable work carried out by the International Commission against Impunity in Guatemala (CICIG) to support and strengthen Guatemalan national institutions. The UK is deeply disappointed at the Guatemalan Government's continued attempts to prevent CICIG from carrying out its mandate, and the attacks on the Constitutional Court which threaten to undermine the rule of law in Guatemala in a year when general elections will be held. In response, I [Sir Alan Duncan] released a statement on 14 January. The UK also joined statements from the EU and the G13 local donor group condemning Guatemala's decision to unilaterally terminate the agreement establishing CICIG and urging the Guatemalan Government to uphold the rule of law. The UK will continue to monitor developments, through our Embassy in Guatemala, and call upon the Guatemalan Government to allow CICIG to complete its mandate and ensure the security of its staff.</p>
