AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

UN Leadership Race: Costa Rica’s Rebeca Grynspan led the sixth Security Council poll for secretary-general, but every candidate drew opposition from at least one permanent member, leaving the race without a clear winner. Crime and Justice: Police named a 22-year-old woman as the suspect in the killing of American Marc Walter Fleming in Playas del Coco; she remains at large, while another woman was arrested on suspicion of helping her flee. Costa Rica also inaugurated a 5,100-person maximum-security prison modeled on El Salvador’s CECOT, as the government vows a tougher response to organized crime. Transport: The licensed taxi fleet has shrunk by nearly half since ride-hailing apps arrived, with about 6,800 concessions still active compared with 13,500 originally issued. Rural Recognition: Farmer Olga Vargas, whose work includes conserving water and supporting local food production, was named among the FAO’s 100 Women Heroes.
