危地马拉：疫情和飓风双重冲击，国家面临严峻挑战（2020～2021）

Abstract:COVID-19 and two hurricane disasters took a heavy toll on Guatemala in 2020. In the political sphere，the ruling party only had a weak political base，while the degree of party fragmentation was high. The national economy was in a recession. The total values of imports and exports have both declined，and the central government’s fiscal deficit has expanded. In terms of social problems，COVID-19 and hurricanes exacerbated both poverty and economic inequality and posed threats to food security. Crime rates declined in early 2020，but have climbed back to the pre-pandemic level by the end of 2020. With regard to foreign relations，the U.S.-Guatemalan relations were relatively tense because of the immigration issue，whereas economic and trade ties between China and Guatemala were strengthened.
