El Salvador’s president is battling US Democrats. He has Twitter spat and snubs visiting Biden envoy Aides to El Salvador, saying he refuses to meet with a visiting senior U.S. diplomat over what he sees as a pattern of slights from Democrats and the Biden administration. “El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele refused to meet with a visiting senior U.S. diplomat this week over what he sees as a pattern of slights from Democrats and the Biden administration, according to two aides of the Central American leader,” Joshua Goodman wrote.
The Democrats have a disaster on their hands with their open border policies that are causing a firestorm of controversy in the United States and for the entire North American continent, leaving a trail of destroying lives over laziness and greed on the part of the Democrats.
“Bukele’s decision not to meet with Ricardo Zuniga, the Biden administration’s envoy to the so-called Northern Triangle countries of Central America, follows a similar snub he allegedly received from U.S. officials during an unannounced trip to Washington in February,” according to ABC News.
It also comes just days after Bukele’s government awarded $1.2 million lobbying contract to the State Department’s former top career diplomat in a bid to improve ties with the new American president.
Zuniga traveled Wednesday to El Salvador following talks in Guatemala focused on immigration amid a surge in child migrants on the U.S. border. Upon arrival, he immediately announced a $2 million U.S. contribution to an international commission seeking to strengthen the fight against corruption, which Biden officials see as one of the root causes of illegal immigration.
Specifically, the two said Bukele was angered by State Department spokesman Ned Price’s comments Monday that the U.S. looks forward to Bukele restoring a “strong separation of powers where they’ve been eroded and demonstrate his government’s commitment to transparency and accountability.”
But Bukele has told aides that he won’t meet with any Biden officials until the U.S. softens criticism raising doubts about his commitment to democracy and the rule of law, according to the two people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity given the diplomatic sensitivities.
NOT HAPPY WITH THE DEMOCRATS
From NPR:
El Salvador’s president is urging voters in a California congressional district to vote out its U.S. representative in the latest back-and-forth spat between the Central American head of state and one of Congress’ most vocal critics of the region’s leaders.
President Nayib Bukele and Democratic Rep. Norma Torres have been exchanging very undiplomatic barbs on Twitter this week.
Torres, who was born in Guatemala, fired the first salvo Wednesday when she retweeted a disturbing video released by U.S. Customs and Border Protection showing two toddler sisters being dropped into the United States by smugglers straddling a 14-foot-tall border wall. The two were picked up by U.S. agents and given medical attention.
Along with a link to the video, Torres tweeted — in Spanish — that the incident is “a great shame for the governments of #Guatemala #Honduras #ElSalvador their compatriots deserve governments that are truly committed to fighting corruption and narco[trafficking]!”
The two girls, ages 3 and 5, are from Ecuador, not any of the three countries Torres mentioned. The majority of the unaccompanied minors currently coming across the U.S. border are from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, collectively known as the Northern Triangle of Central America, according to CBP.
El Salvador’s Bukele, an avid Twitter user, hit back fast with his own Spanish-language tweet. “Look ma’am, did you read that the children are from ECUADOR and not from EL SALVADOR? Also, this happened on the border of Mexico with the United States. What does El Salvador have to do with this?”
The Salvadoran president then told Torres that she should buy some glasses with a portion of her “financier’s checks.”
Most Americans would side with the President of El Salvador.
Biden’s doing so bad that even other liberals are refusing to get involved in his mess.
If only stupid Americans would hear this.
The number of State visits (per country) President Trump was invited to are:
One: Afghanistan, Argentina, Canada, China, Finland, India, Iraq, Israel, North Korea,
Philippines, Poland, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Vatican City and the disputed West Bank
Two: Belgium, Germany, Ireland, Italy, South Korea, Switzerland and Vietnam
Three: Japan and the United Kingdom
Four: France
ZERO
A lot of this has to do with the fact that RATs and their “administrations” are totally corrupt yet they act as though they are not. Other countries know RAts are corrupt and bristle at the blatant audacity of RATs and their bully tactics.
Pot calling the kettle black.
I saw him being interviewed by Tucker Carlson last month. He speaks fluent English.
Is of Palestinian heritage, by the way.
I remember when he ran for the job, but he is not anti Israel.
The Democrat Party, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, ETC. have not on iota of positive recognition worldwide. They are nether respected or admired, anywhere. The Russians, The Chinese, The North Koreans, the Iranians,etc., openly mock and ignore them. The rest of the world believes the USA under the failed leadership of Biden/Harris is going down the drain. The world is laughing at us stupid Americans. Well...America...you made your bed accepting a fake POTUS...now enjoy your self-inflicted death of this once great nation!!!
Wise up...Americans...time is running out to maintain your freedom, liberty & opportunities!!! Say welcome to “Big Brother”!!!
Central America might be a nice place to land, once the all the sorry, lazy bums all relocate to the US, and Dims/MSM have all future elections rigged and in their pocket.
Always ready to move out and stay ahead of calamity.
Let’s all move to Mexico. It must surely be empty by now...............
Just wow!
