  "account": "The economy has taken a backseat to security in Latin American politics. A growing sense of social discontent and an increase in crime has led presidential candidates to shift their focus from traditional debates on reform, growth, and development to prioritizing territorial control, police deployment, and fighting organized crime. This is according to the Informe de Economía Latinoamericana, published by Banco de España on Tuesday.",
  "summary": "A report by the Bank of Spain points out that regional politicians are placing the fight against crime at the center of their programs while proposing tax cuts that compromise the sustainability of public accounts.",
