Does Nayib Bukele's reelection violate El Salvador's constitution?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 сен 2024
- Incumbent President Nayib Bukele has declared victory in El Salvador's recent election, claiming over 80 percent of the vote in a record-breaking outcome. Over 76,000 Salvadorans have been detained without trial under Bukele since a state of exception was first declared in March 2022. While a majority of Salvadorans approve of Bukele, critics have long decried his government's authoritarianism, and are now raising questions about the legitimacy of his recent reelection. The Real News reports from El Salvador.

People complain that he’s violating human rights. Yet, we, the United States, took in war criminals so what does that make us?
Worse, the same one's we trained to be those criminals
Exactly, the US embraced literal “not seas” & other genocidal maniacs with open arms for decades
Violating the rights of criminals is apparently not one of the largest concerns of El Salvador citizens. Most governments try to tackle crime with one hand tied behind their backs. The primary responsibility of a legal system should be to protect the innocent, not the rights of criminals.
👏🏾
Bukele is failing to protect the innocent too because he locked up thousands from mere suspicion without evidence and without right to due process.
@@rmharding5263 i agree
Well said
You cannot argue with these results, he has truly turned the country around for the better.
Well said
If every country in the world had a president like Nayib Bukele the world would be a much better place
💯% Facts !!!
just look how the death of crime is low and security is a better place of south america what do you want, the security is the number one of some country like el salvador , like syria @@makesense7970
Exactly
This is how bad Bukele has brainwashed you
I have an aunt from El Salvador & honestly as leftist socialist as I am, I have to admit he’s done more good than bad. The gang problem, like most modern problems, is a result of the US interference in other countries’ governments throughout the decades & the after effects of European colonization.
I admire Bukele, why do western "non-profit" organizations always have these complaints??? El salvador was a place where nobody walked without getting beaten, shot, extorted or even violated, including children ):
Now El Salvador is becoming an enriched country
If these "non profit" organizations start having countries leave poverty behind, what is going to be their excuse to extract money? Where are these rich countries going to get cheap labour that they can easily exploit to keep their corporate overlords happy once their own citizens stop reproducing due to the ever-growing cost of life that only benefits the 1%?
Because the only "democracy" the west recognizes is one installed by them after carpet bombing.
@@TuAmigoElMorrocoygood one
Because they’re all Biden riders who want to protect criminals
"Concerns" "concerns" "concerns". How about you back up your claims with evidence and specifics instead of vague insinuations.
Bukele is currently the most popular president in America. Not in “the Americas”. America is the whole continent. The US is but one of the many countries in America.
This is trivial as many parts of the world have different definitions of what continents are.
Funny to see how bukele hasn’t done anything besides safety when I seen SO MANY videos of construction of new projects and roads that people didn’t have access before. Bukele is the best thing for El Salvador and hopefully many of my Latin American brothers follow.🎉
Funny to see how the previous “democratic” govern,ents didn’t address the security problem in 30 years after the civil war, but profited from the problem letting the common citizen abandoned to their fate under the gangs dictatorship.
The human rights of the majority was increasingly and systematically violated by the gangs with unwilling and impotent governments. Under the gangs dictatorship there was no right to transit, no right to life, no right to due process, no right of expression, no right to education, no right to enjoy the fruits of their labour, no right to peaceful enjoy,ent of life, no right to safety.
Bukele is the coolest leader on the planet at the moment.
shame for whoever sent money to a propaganda outlet
I sense you guys don't appreciate law and order 🤔
I sense you are writing your comment from the comfort of your home and have no idea what El Salvador people had to go through for the last 40 years, the rights of the honest and hard working people take precedent over the rights of the terrorists. law , order and freedom is what we finally have now!!!
@@CarlosMolina-sp6wihe is criticizing this RUclips channel for their hate for Bukele not El Salvador
I sense that you like authoritarian regimes 🥱
@CarlosMolina-sp6wi read comments properly before replying... He was talking abt RUclips channel not ur country...
@@CarlosMolina-sp6wiI think he was actually supporting the Presidents programs not criticizing them
I’m Salvadoran and I am very proud of what President Bukele has done. The people of El Salvador are now happy and feel safe and secure. The next thing is to fix the economy which is already in the works.
BUKELE won with 84% of the votes. Salvadorans chose their own destiny. Best president and safest country in the americas.
This man is a HERO! Protecting his citizens and caring for the people! As long as he helping his citizens and protecting them...FOR THE PEOPLE....HE IS A HERO!
Run! THe roads have been improved, new hospitals, better education/healthcare, no more crime, no more blood shed. But there is a park that has not yet been remodeled! OMG world news!!! What a problem! 😆
Simply “it does”…. No matter what the 🇹🇷Prezi says. Ignoring that he violated the Constitution and election laws is the ignorance of his followers.
EXACTLY. ONLY A VERY FEW GET THAT.
I do appreciate the work you do. But, ENOUGH. Concentrate on the CRIMES OF u.s. actions worldwide and DON'T POISON THE WELL for Salvadorians. They chose Bukele by their own effing free will. STAY OUT OF IT.
interesting...do this don't do that
Well said!

@@muhammadx1670 you got it...mier da.
The turnaround of your country is one of the greatest accomplishments this world has ever seen. People can actually enjoy a life that they are entitled to! Your country has been freed. Don’t listen to the critics, they are on the side of the devil and should be ignored by all.
The same criminals that the US deported to El Salvador suddenly have more rights than innocent lives. Those NGOs and human rights organizations should have asked to keep them in their houses.
Congrats to El Salvador and Bukele!
Congratulations
Violating the law is surely preferable to mass violation of the young?
The new president is approved and loved by his people. He made the country safe to live and exist, as to the outside criticism should mind their own local problems.
😂... LIKE WHEN CASTEO MADE ALL THE CRIMINALS MOVE TO AMERICA TO CORRUPT AMERICA
I love this guy personally. The video did show both sides though it's not some hit piece
The hell with any constitution that probably was written by corrupts, we the people of El Salvador elect Bukele we don't care who cries, I hope he stays 30 years, viva Bukele y viva El Salvador.

The supreme court has ruled that the president could seek second term. What is your motive for implying that the reelection was constitutional ? Please name these "critics" you are claiming have questions about the constitutionality of this overwhelming election.
Grande Bukele ¡¡¡Un ejemplo para Europa!!!
President puts criminals in jail, paint him as a dictator.
President lets criminals run free, paint him a compassionate caring person saving the soul of the country.
"No matter how much of a hero you are there you will always be someone's Villan. "
We proud of Bukele...
This channel has no fair perspective about Bukele. Shame on you..
That's the true defination of democracy. The rule by the people.
If the people decides he should rule for another 30 years, it is the PEOPLE who have decided and it's very ok.
He elected by the Salvadorean people you like it or you don't like it.
PEOPLE ARE SO CAUGHT UP INTO THEIR FEELINGS. NO WONDER IT IS EASY FOR CORRUPTION TO HAPPEN, THE PEOPLE CHEER FOR IT.
Idk i thought this was a very well balanced video. Im surprised everyone is treating it like a hit job. It showed criticism, but also didn't down play the achievements. Maybe you could argue didnt do good enough, one way or the other. but overal not bad at all, particularly for a smaller station
That’s fair.
Exactly. This human tendency to want bias is so annoying. I’m not saying they gave all the facts in either direction but it was pretty balanced compared to The NY Times.
Devils complaining
Right..
how does this channel have almost 1 million subs and this video only has 5k views and 240 likes in almost 2 weeks? I follow creators with 20k subs with more views and likes, lol.
astroturf news.
So, 70% safer and you complain about some unfinished parks? Priorities
WOULDNT THAT BE A PART OF SAFETY?
@@ibe310no, what are you talking about?
Why not point out corrupt governments. Stop interfering
I think there is nothing wrong with violating the rights of criminals people are just not always to happy with governments doing this because eventually it boils over to innocent people and those tactics beging to be used on them. Look at minority groups in America and how often has the FBI violated rights over nothing and found nothing. Just saying I could be wrong tho.
Under Biden FBI arrested a man in his house and his four children only because he was catholic and opposed abortion..
His strategy works!
I just visited El Salvador last week and let me tell you I was so safe. The roads were amazing. The capital was so beautiful. These people want everything done with in 3 years cuz 2 years were covid. Give it time if you go to El Salvador right now you see everything under construction everything they can't do everything at once and let me tell you something about these moms holding these signs about their kids. They are part of the gangs. If you can mention me someone on video that stated that their son yes is a criminal. Please show me. No mother will say that their son is a criminal and those are facts
THAT FACT HE GAVE THAT SPEECH ON A BLACONY LIKE HE WAS A POPE SHOULD BE ALARMING TO PEOPLE. BUT THEN AGAIN THEY ARE UNDER A GHOST SPELL OF RELIGION
You are under the spell of delusion if you think Bukele's votes is due to religion. How do you even base that?
The people are more powerful than some random constitution article.
Cuanto dinero se robaron antes, ni si quiere las calles terminaban.
Y ahorra Marisela Ramirez se da el lujo de quejarse que un parque todavia no ha sido remodelado.
Sounds like a first world problem.
These people need to be patient. One thing at a time. First, security. Next, infrastructure and improved living for citizens. Are these people not happy the gangs are gone? Their president just did the impossible.
"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
Bukelle did the right thing and El Salvador people Love Him..stop say Bad thing about Him.
CONGRATS TO EL SALVADOR THE SAFEST COUNTRY IN THE AMERICAS.....simple as that...........great leaders care for their nation and people..........he won through democracy. end of the story.
We love you
Let’s hope that the projects not completed yet is something that it will after there is money, step by step. Hopefully the president doesn’t get drunk on power, hopefully he keeps he vision of progress and protection of the honest peaceful citizens.
We need this in America. Enough is enough. Maybe we can hold of full fascism if we act now.
There’s an old saying you are who you hang with and if they are doing shady crime you distance yourself faraway as possible,just my opinion.
Bukele selling lemons
Hey presenter I have one name for you to really investigate.... JULIAN ASSANGE!!!
Thanks for the Real Journalism 🙏
Fascist governments always start with celebrations; but always end with crying and violence.
I hope for the best but fear for the worst.
The weak, melodramatic responses by westerns in developed countries are ridiculous in the face of the atrocities committed in El Salvador since the 80s. Gang members’ families will obviously cry for them, but countless families were destroyed by murder and extortion prior. Where was the melodramatic response for decades of Salvadorans needlessly dying while becoming further indebted to developed western countries?
Ah, yes, the "fascism" of dealing with crime and redirecting criminal funds to social projects. Just awful.
They didn't even carpet bomb the economy into the stone age and kill millions, clearly not democratic by western standards.
So the alternative is what exactly? We had someone that was the same as the previous presidents? She's complaining about the parks, when once they couldn't even be accessible without the fear of gang activity? This is just a negative video about bukele but not mentions nothing of the positive that's he's done for the country? Bias negative video. 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽
Nah. That trump like part us insulting. He actually got work done and wasn't running on hatred
I will say that the new system isnt perfect ahd needs fixing but the wffects are noticiable that the people feel safe at last
Bukele 🎉
You need better information, go to talk to the people in El Salvador more
How many are innocent, do you guys have numbers?
Good question. The so called criminal call human rights groups go around the world criticizing other countries for killing and locking up criminals. Yet there country's of origin violate more human rights than any one else. Let be clear police knows all the criminals in there communities and it's true in situations like this innocent people gets taken. 7000 has already been released. Human rights groups go around the world defending criminals undermining government because that what Gorge soros gives them billions for. Have any one ever heard human rights groups talking about the thousands of law abiding citizens theses monsters merder every year no!.
Here comes the SMEAR CAMPAIGN 🤦♂
YOU HATE TO CALL IT DOWN THE MIDDLE
It's Indioland.
necessary to fulfill its promises
he needs to implent a stronger tax on central america because most of it was originally coming from drugs now they have to get jobs and work real wages and honest living and complaining about a park insfastructure like parks take a long time even in america
Police states are popular in 2024 I guess!
Bootlicking violent gangs is eternally popular though.
@@wrongthinker843 that’s the best defense of a police state you got?
I don’t know what your definition of a police state is, but you should go there and see for yourself if El Salvador is actually a police state but then you should’ve gone years ago wihen the gangs where the ones ruling in the country to compare.
@@joefue1 yeah alright tell that to the families who haven’t heard from their loved ones in years! Tell that to the people who have had innocent people jailed that will never come home because they’re dead now! I’ll take your words for it!
@@DeathB4Dishonor2300 and?
Very disappointing. Just unsubscribed. Adios.
Bye 😬👀
This channel LOOKS for problems and fans the sparks into fires once found.
Always needing to find victims.
Thank you for reporting th truth. I love my country but clearly El Salvador has not learned from it's mistakes.. History is repeating itself before our very eyes and now this model of governement is spreading across Latin America. Sorry to say but they deserve everything that is coming their way in the future for blindly voting and not taking a second to critically think for themselves. Good luck El Salvador you are going to need it
You clearly have no vision of El Salvador’s future. You are a pessimist. What’s worse you don’t recognise what President Bukele has brought to the Americas. Safety
Even if you are right, better to not vote than to get murdered in the street.
I am actually from El Salvador ( the most dangerous part - Soyapango ) and grew up there during the worst of times & i know what i am seeing .. Bukele has brough safety but not peace . Safety at what cost? History that El Salvador had left behind is repeating it's self in the form of dictatorship. You know what other country locks up people without a fair day in court to prove their innocences? NORTH KOREA & my country El Salvador are the 2 countries in the WORLD who do that type thing & admit it.
I am not a bad person for asking my president Bukele to do better than what is currently being done. If he changes a few things like locking up the innocent without fair trail & stop breaking the consitution as he sees fit then he can be acknowledged as the greatest president of all the Americans of all time., but until then ...@@tonymena
I am not a bad person for asking my governement to do better and to not resemble North Korea in it's flawed and corrupt practices ( NOT arresting people without a fair trail is part of democrocy & El Salvador is lacking it right now ) Somebody must stand by the innocent. Clearly it is not you. @@tonymena
Repost because Tony Mena in the comments reported my comment because that would proven him wrong, well you cannot silence the truth :
"Actualy I am from El Salvador & I am from the most dangerous part, Soyapango. I grew up there during the worst of times & I know what I am currently seeing where it will lead us.
Bukele has brought safety but no PEACE. Safety but at what cost? A history that EL Salvador left behind many years is now repeating itself in the form of a dictatorship ( which is nothing to be proud of ) . Do you know what other country locks up it's own people without a fair day in court? North Korea & now my country El Salvador. The only two countries in the world who do this & admit it.
I am not a bad person for asking my country & my president to do better than what is being done today. IF Bukele changes a few things like not putting our pople in jail without a fair day in court & to stop breaking the consitution as he sees fit then & only then can he be acknowledged as the greatest Presidente of all the Americas but until then ... Stay safe & fight for your freedoms Amigos.
Hasta la Mu3rt3 "
He's nothing like, "Trump". This channel is BS 😂😂😂😂😂
Bitcoin economy
The Opposition should stop bitching about little things... Try to appreciate that the daily murders have stopped or would they rather it continue? If those "innocents" were running free before the murders were apprehended, they could've been dead by now anyway so why the bitching? Some things take time to process 💪
"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
TBE LITTLE THINGS MATTER. FUNNY HOW THINGS LIKE THAT WAS TAUGHT TO US WHE. WE WAS YOUNG JUST TO BE THROWN AWAY WHEN WE THINK WE ARE GETTING WHAT WE WANT AS ADULTS. IT IS QUITE DISTURBING. PEOPLE DO NOT DO ANY TYPE OF WOLRD HISTORY RESEARCH. THIS IS HOW HITLER BECAME POPULAR....HELLO!
NO IT DOES NOT
Can you read?
This is very interesting. Remember folks, “By their fruits we shall know them.” Let’s see how this unfolds, Bukele might be another wolf in sheep’s clothing.
It takes a wolf to tame the flock
I hope not but we will see.
