Trump Administration Revokes Visas from 27 Latin American Officials

The Trump administration has revoked visas from 27 Latin American officials and their families, including Bolivia's top prosecutor, Roger Mariaca.

The move targets individuals from Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru, all nations with right-leaning leaders close to President Donald Trump.

The officials are accused of corruption, particularly in relation to the narcotics trade and illegal migration. The State Department claims that undermining democratic governance is a threat to security and rule of law in the Americas.

Mariaca, who was elected to a six-year term in 2024, is accused of abusing his public position by soliciting and accepting bribes to facilitate narcotrafficking and helping violent criminals evade justice.
