BUKELE UP
EL SALVADOR’S PRESIDENT SUMMONS THE ARMY TO BULLY CONGRESS Nayib Bukele may get his way, at the price of damaging democracy THE AMERICAS Feb 13th 2020 edition -------------------------Feb 13th 2020
*
NAYIB BUKELE, the president of El Salvador, draws notice outside his country for his youth, his jet-black beard and his mastery of social media. Now his authoritarianism is a trending topic. The sight of Mr Bukele entering the National Assembly on February 9th, alongside soldiers toting machine guns, shocked onlookers at home and abroad. He plonked himself in the empty chair reserved for the president of congress. “I liked seeing those empty seats,” he tweeted. “It made it easier for me to imagine them full of honest people who workfor the people.”
Congress accused the president of staging an “attempted coup”. The Constitutional Court rebuked Mr Bukele. _El Faro_, a Salvadorean news website, called his stunt “the lowest moment that Salvadorean democracy has lived in three decades”. He retorted, not very reassuringly, “If I were a dictator, I would have taken control ofeverything.”
