In a recent statement, President Nayib Bukele has underscored El Salvador’s dedication to maintaining its status as a safe haven and a strong proponent of freedom of expression. Bukele took to the social media platform X to highlight the nation’s achievements and reaffirm his government’s commitment to these principles.
El Salvador, as described by Bukele, stands out not only as the safest country in the Western Hemisphere but also as a bastion of respect for fundamental rights. «El Salvador is not only the safest country in the Western Hemisphere, but we also guarantee that you will not be arrested, censored or have your property confiscated for exercising your right to freedom of expression. And there is no property tax,» Bukele stated.
This assertion comes in the wake of the Bukele administration’s successful initiatives aimed at reducing violence and dismantling criminal organizations. The country’s improved public security has garnered international recognition, positioning El Salvador as a global benchmark in safety and law enforcement.
Bukele’s remarks reaffirm his government’s ongoing commitment to ensuring that security and the right to free expression remain cornerstones of Salvadoran society.
