On January 27, 2020, US Attorney General William P. Barr met with Guatemala Attorney General Maria Consuelo Porras Argueta. That meeting was a follow-up dialogue to the May 2019 Third Ministerial of the Northern Triangle Attorneys General in El Salvador. Dr. Porras has been a long-time rule of law defender who has worked closely with various US agencies including the DEA, the Justice Department, and the State Department. How is it that one year and seven months later, Secretary of State Tony Blinken imposes sanctions on Attorney General Porras for allegedly "obstructed investigations into acts of corruption by interfering with criminal investigations"? It makes no sense. We start to unpack this legal issue and a follow-up show is coming in English, next week, to further assess the potentially unlawful use of U.S. economic sanctions.
