If you only follow the US press, you haven't heard of the following scandal surrounding the US Embassy in El Salvador. Last year (2021) two deputies of Bukele's New Ideas party, José García and Gerardo Aguilar, were caught on audio tape discussing with Roy Garcia, a representative of some El Salvadoreans living abroad who was trying to form a new party, how the United States embassy was offering money to induce 20 members of the New Ideas party to leave and join his new party. The US embassy denied the plan existed, but the two deputies were expelled from El Salvador's assembly. The US ambassador to El Salvador, Jean Manes, left her position shortly after the scandal became known. |
