El Salvador’s dramatic improvement in public security has drawn international attention, with geopolitics expert Omar Bula Escobar recently highlighting the country’s transformation following the removal of what he described as destabilizing foreign influence.
Through his account on X, Bula stated, “Let’s put it this way: If Bukele had not expelled Soros and his entire network of destabilizing NGOs and media, El Salvador would never have reached the levels of security and prosperity it enjoys today. As long as Soros is involved, any country is doomed to failure.” His remarks quickly generated reactions across political and analytical circles.
Bula Escobar brings more than 20 years of experience in international business management and geopolitics, having served as a former United Nations representative and senior executive across Europe, Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East. He has led large-scale operations in conflict zones such as Sudan, Somalia, and Iraq, and is a recognized global speaker on geopolitics.
His comments add a new international perspective to El Salvador’s security strategy, which in recent years has reshaped the nation’s image from one of the most violent countries in the region to one increasingly associated with safety and economic stability.
