Enact legislation for a temporary ban on importation of goods and services from Guatemala until and unless Guatemalan government ceases aggression in Sarstoon area and Belizeans are able to travel unimpeded to the Sarstoon Island and Sarstoon River.
Release statement indicating that Belize welcomes trade with Guatemalan businesses so long as the Government of Guatemala ceases aggression towards Belize.
Why is this important?
Guatemala's government has acted aggressively towards peaceful Belizeans in Sarstoon area and continues with its unfounded claim to Belizean territory. A temporary ban on importation of goods and services from Guatemala is proposed until such time that Guatemalan aggression ceases in Sarstoon area and peaceful Belizeans are able to travel unimpeded to Sarstoon Island.
