From Bloodshed To Bukele: A Timeline Of El Salvador’s War, Gangs And Crackdown
Although it may now be leading the conversation in safety and law enforcement, El Salvador reached that point only after a decades-long crucible, often exchanging the tyranny of military dictators for the subjugation of street kingpins. While it is impossible to pinpoint what began the decades of bloodshed in El Salvador, there is little debate over what ended them: the decisive yet controversial crackdown by the country’s current president, Nayib Bukele.
