MEMORANDUM
Erick Estuardo Ajanel-Sanchez, a native and citizen of Guatemala, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) decision denying his application for asylum and withholding of removal. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence. Lata v. INS, 204 F.3d 1241, 1244 (9th Cir.2000). We deny the petition for review.
We conclude that the IJ’s nexus determination is not supported by substantial evidence because the guerillas threatened to kill Ajanel-Sanchez based on their belief that he supported the military. See Navas v. INS, 217 F.3d 646, 656-57 (9th Cir.2000).
Even assuming Ajanel-Sanchez suffered past persecution, his presumption of well-founded fear is rebutted by changed country conditions. See Gonzalez-Hernandez v. Ashcroft, 336 F.3d 995, 997-98 (9th Cir.2003). Accordingly, Aja-nel-Sanchez’s asylum and withholding of removal claims fail.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
