Just two days after the US Embassy officially opened in Jerusalem, Guatemala followed suit and opened the doors to its new mission in the Holy City.
Guatemalan President Jimmy Morales, a dedicated Christian, was on hand to personally inaugurate his nation's new embassy at the Malha Technology Park.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also addressed the event, showering affection and praise on Morales for having the courage to take a stand that's so unpopular with the international community.
Guatemala was also the second nation after the United States to officially recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital back in December 2017.
In fact, Guatemala has a long history of supporting Israel:
