| Elections
Nuevas Ideas, the ruling party in El Salvador, will govern 26 out of 44 municipalities, representing 59% of the total, a decrease from the 84% support during Nayib Bukele's presidential campaign. Allies of the ruling party, including GANA, PDC, PCN, and CD, will govern additional municipalities. ARENA, not considered an ally by Bukele, secured one municipality under Milagro Navas. The FMLN and other parties like Vamos and Nuestro Tiempo did not win any municipalities. These results are based on 79.1% of processed records as of March 5.

How useful is Bukele's state of exception?

Spanish
| Human Rights
A recent study highlights that 1% of Salvadorans are involved in gangs, leading to high violence rates. In response, President Nayib Bukele declared a state of exception, resulting in mass incarcerations and reduced violence but also causing humanitarian issues in prisons. The International Crisis Group's report suggests that while the policy has popular support, it may lead to long-term negative effects, including potential resurgence of violence. The report advocates for reintegration and restorative justice as long-term solutions. Bukele's policies have garnered international attention, but Western democracies remain cautious in their stance.

English
| Government Crackdown
El Salvador is experiencing a severe gang war, primarily between Mara Salvatrucha and Barrio 18, leading to high homicide rates and widespread fear. The government's response has been a crackdown, reminiscent of past failed policies, which has been criticized for exacerbating violence rather than alleviating it. The article highlights the social and political dynamics, including the legacy of the civil war and the role of the FMLN, in shaping the current crisis. Critics argue for a more comprehensive approach addressing underlying social issues rather than relying solely on repression.

El Salvador's Bukele Boosts Overseas Voting with New Internet System
24 Jan 2024

English
| Human Rights
El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele's administration has launched a new Internet voting system for Salvadorans living abroad, leading to a significant increase in overseas voting. In the first three days, 51,226 Salvadorans voted, a stark contrast to the 3,808 votes from abroad in the entire 2019 presidential elections. Bukele, who is seeking re-election despite a constitutional ban, is popular for his crackdown on gang violence. However, his actions have raised concerns about undermining democracy and human rights violations. Critics and political opponents question the transparency and security of the online voting system, while international observers worry about the potential for vote manipulation. Despite these concerns, Bukele maintains high approval ratings both domestically and among the diaspora.

Nayib Bukele has defied El Salvador's constitutional prohibition on a second presidential term, winning over 83% of the vote in the recent election. His party, Nuevas Ideas, is set to secure 58 of the 60 seats in the unicameral legislative assembly. Traditional parties, the conservative Alleanza Repubblicana Nazionalista (Arena) and the leftist Fronte Farabundo Martí per la Liberazione Nazionale (Fmln), failed to surpass 10% of the vote, marking a significant shift in the country's political landscape.

| Social Media
Nayib Bukele, the new president of El Salvador, has been using Twitter extensively to announce the dismissal of public officials and make new appointments, a strategy that has garnered both praise and criticism. While some view his actions as transparent and proactive, others see them as an abuse of power. Bukele's use of social media has drawn comparisons to US President Donald Trump, although Bukele's follower count is significantly lower. The article highlights the mixed reactions from the public and political analysts, noting that Bukele's approach could be a strategic move to differentiate himself from previous administrations.

Country profile: El Salvador
01 Nov 2015
|
New Internationalist
|
English
| Drug Cartels
The article discusses the ongoing violence in El Salvador, which may soon surpass Honduras as the world's most violent country, excluding active warzones. It reflects on the country's history, including the civil war that ended in 1992 and the recent presidency of Salvador Sánchez Cerén, a former FMLN rebel. The piece examines the breakdown of a truce between major gangs MS-13 and Barrio 18, which was initially successful in reducing violence through negotiations led by the Catholic Church and supported by then-president Mauricio Funes. The truce's collapse is attributed to a lack of government support for prevention and rehabilitation, as well as the return of gang leaders to maximum-security prisons. The article also touches on the socio-economic disparities in El Salvador, the mass exodus of Salvadorans to the US, and the influence of deported gang members from the US on local gang culture. Additionally, it mentions the infiltration of drug cartels into Salvadoran institutions and the description of the country's criminal patterns by Insight Crime as resembling a low-intensity war.
