Guatemalan President Otto Perez Molina has announced the Central American country will defy U.S. orders and decriminalize drugs to put an end to the U.S.-led drug war.
“We are not doing what the United States says, we are doing what we have to do,†said Perez, who received a nod from Washington after being elected as a former military man with an “iron-fist†approach to crime. But now he’s surprised many with promises to end the drug war.
