The president of Guatemala vowed Monday to crack down on demonstrators complaining of mismanagement of the coronavirus pandemic and ทดลองเล่นสล็อต pg protesting delays in shipments of Russia's Sputnik vaccine.

 

A crowd of about 300 protesters gathered Saturday in the main square of the capital to demand the resignation of President Alejandro Giammattei for his failure to obtain enough vaccine.

 

On Monday, banners appeared on several streets in Guatemala City demanding Giammattei resign.

 

Referring to the protests, Giammattei said: “We are going to limit this type of thing. I think this is enough already.”

 

“These people are spreading the virus and causing more problems, that is what they want and they are spreading it through a series of illegal demonstrations,” he added.

 

Giammattei signed a deal for 16 million doses of the two-dose Russian vaccine, and paid 50%, or almost $80 million, up front. But only about 550,000 Sputnik doses have arrived so far.
