Movement for the Liberation of the Peoples is a political party in Guatemala.[2]

History

The movement was registered on December 8, 2016 in the Supreme Electoral Tribunal and its registration process ends on December 7, 2018. The party's general secretary is Byron Alfredo González Tool. It has more than 23,800 members. It is constituted mainly by members of the Peasant Development Committee (Codeca). Its main leaders have been accused of theft of electric power, as well as multiple demonstrations to demand the resignation of President Jimmy Morales. They have mentioned that URNG and Winaq do not represent indigenous peoples.[3][4][5][6] In September 2018, the political organization concluded the requirements and was made official as a political party in the same month.
