The United States must respect the universal rights of the tens of thousands of unaccompanied minors illegally entering the country, according to the Salvadoran ambassador to the United States.
We understand the concern of the U.S. government about the issue of immigration.

Children are entitled to receive special protection from our consulates, where we contact their family members, collaborate on reunification either in the United States and El Salvador and avoid re-victimization, he continued.
