Estud. sobre derecho justicia [online]. 2021, vol.6, n.17, pp.167-194.  Epub 23-Abr-2021. ISSN 2448-5136.  https://doi.org/10.32870/dgedj.v6i17.351.

Guatemalan President Jimmy Morales Cabrera (elected for the period 2016-2020) used on a couple of occasions, the figure of declaration of “persona non grata” to certain diplomatic personalities such as the Commissioner of the International Commission against Impunity in Guatemala (CICIG) and the Ambassador of the Kingdom of Sweden. In both cases, media, political and legal reactions were generated. This article discusses the declaratory of persona non grata in the recent Guatemalan context, both in the field of the diplomatic law and Guatemalan legal system, observing major discrepancies in conceptualization and exercise.
