Nayib Bukele Drops the Hammer on BBC Reporter
|
[RedState] The President of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, has decreased crime in the country by historic lows.
Some have criticized Bukele's tough-on-crime, anti-criminal stance, going as far as calling him a "dictator."
Bukele has an approval rating of 90 percent as of June 2023, per a CID Gallup poll. El Salvador recently re-elected Bukele as exit polls showed him taking 87 percent of the national vote.
A BBC reporter tried challenging Bukele about his stance on crime. It didn't go well for the reporter. In part, Buekele responded:
We took the recipes from the European Union, we took the recipes from the United States; none of the recipes worked. More gunshots, more people were dying, so what do we do? We do something, and we save people, and now, we're the safest country in the Western Hemisphere. But suddenly something's bad... Not only do we have the right to do what we think is right... but also we have proven it works, and you haven't proven that your system works in our country. It doesn't work in their countries either - does that stops them?
