Suriname
Suriname is a constitutional democracy that holds generally free and fair elections. However, corruption is a pervasive problem in government, and attacks on judicial independence and due process, underscored by the president’s interference in his own murder trial, remain a concern. Women, indigenous peoples, and the Maroon population are politically underrepresented.
