Hector Lopez is a character from the James Bond film Licence to Kill who was played by Pedro Armendáriz Jr.
Lopez is corrupt El Presidente of Isthmus. He receives monthly payments from Franz Sanchez for harbouring him, but is clearly not happy at the arrangement, as Sanchez essentially controls the country and threatens him: “Remember – you are only President for life.”
Lopez is one of the few characters to survive making deals with a Bond villain, and is even at the end of the film in Bond’s company, presumably much reformed and pledged to clean up corruption in his country now that he is free of Sanchez. He is left possibly even dating Lupe Lamora, as Bond suggests when he rejects her advances himself in favour of Pam Bouvier.
