Guatemala's President, Bernardo Arevalo, apologized to Osmin Tobar for his forced adoption as a child and the separation from his brother. Tobar, now 34, was taken from his family in 1997 and adopted by an American family. The adoption scandal, involving thousands of children, was part of a multimillion-dollar black market. This apology acknowledges the injustice and marks a commitment to justice and healing for affected families, with Tobar sharing his story to raise awareness and advocate for family preservation laws.
