A new discussion broke out on social networks between Colombian President Gustavo Petro and El Salvador President Nayib Bukele. In fact, he was the first Colombian president to “attack” the Salvadorans.
(
This Thursday, Petro referenced a CNN report in which prosecutors in New York claimed that senior Bukele officials had made a deal with the gangs. This clause refers to a so-called agreement by criminal groups to lower the murder rate in exchange for better conditions. “To show that his tough approach to crime is working,” the report says.
President Petro responded to this broadcast by saying “better than getting government deals under the table”. is that justice can bring them to the table without cheating and in search of peace.”.
And Bukele, who had previously argued with Petro about mega-prisons, responded to that trill about what’s going on in El Salvador.
“Agreed. First they accuse him of inhumane treatment, and now they talk about “better conditions”. Also, I don’t understand the El Salvador obsession,” he said.

El Salvador’s president also touched on the controversy surrounding the President’s son, Nicolás Petro, who will receive illegal money for his father’s campaign. “Isn’t it your son who also makes deals for the table and money? Is everything okay at home?” Bukele wrote.
Clashes between the two leaders began a few weeks ago, when the Colombian president launched scathing taunts about the mega-prison inaugurated on Salvadoran soil. “On the nets you can see thousands and thousands of incarcerated concentration camps in El Salvador filled with young people,” Petro said.
“The results outweigh the rhetoric. I really want Colombia to lower its murder rates, as we Salvadorans have achieved. God bless you,” Bukele said.

Bukele inaugurated the Prison of Terror (Cecot), a 23-hectare prison with a capacity of approximately 40,000 people, in January. There, on February 24, 2,000 so-called gang members were transferred. “This will be their new home, where they’ll live in karma for decades before they can do more damage to the population,” Bukele said.
