		In December 1965, the United States received reports that a right-wing military group might stage a coup d’etat against Colonel Enrique Peralta Azurdia.
		The coup leader, Colonel Miguel Angel Ponciano, was concerned that Peralta might block his candidacy in the Presidential election scheduled for March 1966.
		The coup was evidently defused when the Embassy told Ponciano that the United States supported free elections in Guatemala and opposed any attempt to overthrow the government by force.
