El Salvador President continues his 'war against crime' in the region

Cato Institute Latin America Policy Analyst Daniel Raisbeck discussed the “continuation” of El Salvador President Nayib Bukele’s battle against crime. Dramatic footage shows the El Salvador President announce to his cabinet they are all under investigation for corruption. “What you see in the video is Bukele launching ‘war against corruption’,” Mr Raisbeck told Sky News host Gabriella Power. “I think it’s a continuation of his war against crime. “El Salvador has been, during the last few decades, one of the most violent countries in Latin America and in fact in the world. “This changed with Bukele who came to power around five years ago. He has imposed very drastic measures against criminal gangs. “This has made El Salvador from one of the most violent countries in the world to one of the least violent in the region.”
