AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Diplomacy & Security: Ukraine’s FM Andrii Sybiha spoke by phone with Costa Rica’s Manuel Tovar Rivera about Russia’s missile and drone attacks, stressing Black Sea port and shipping-route threats that also endanger global food security. Cybersecurity: Costa Rica’s cybersecurity directorate is investigating a dark-web post claiming tens of millions of personal records, including identity photos and court files, but says it can’t yet confirm a real breach. Tech & Infrastructure: Limón may host the Quantum AI Free Zone Campus, a planned 200MW AI data-center complex with construction expected to finish by end-2027. Public Safety: CCSS data shows nearly 10,000 gunshot emergencies treated since 2020, highlighting how armed violence strains hospitals beyond homicide counts. Local Governance: Cartago merchants are challenging a municipal order to close businesses around the Independence Torch reception site, citing security concerns and asking for the legal basis. Economy & Travel Costs: Finance clarified that overseas hotel stays booked with Costa Rican cards can trigger an automatic 13% VAT charge, but refunds require a separate application. Weather: Tropical Wave #43 keeps Sunday unstable, with heavy rain, storms, and flood/landslide risks in vulnerable areas. Banking Upgrade: Banco de Costa Rica rolled out 421 next-gen contactless ATMs nationwide. Independence Spotlight: The Independence Torch is scheduled to reach San José and Cartago tonight for the 205th anniversary celebrations.
