The President of El Salvador affirmed today in his speech before the plenary session of the General Assembly that “in a very short time”, his country has gone from being “literally the most dangerous country in the world, to being on the way to being the safest country in the world”. America”.
Nayib Bukele said that anyone who goes to El Salvador will find the best surfing beaches in the world, volcanoes everywhere, an incredible coffee, they will be able to walk with peace and tranquility through any corner of our country and especially, they will find a united people fighting for their freedom.
“We went from being a country unknown to many and those who knew it, knew it because of the gangs, because of the dead, because of the violence, because of the war; We went from that to being a country known for its beaches, for surfing, for its volcanoes, for its financial freedom, for its good government and for having put an end to organized crime,” he said.
However, he assured that “To be free, it is an essential requirement that the powerful respect the freedom of their nation”.
“I come from a town that only owns the smallest country in the American continent. And that even that small property on that little piece of land, which is barely visible on the map, is not respected by countries that have much more territory, much more money, much more power and that correctly think that they are the owners of their country; but who incorrectly think they own ours too,” he said.
obsolete format
Later, he reiterated again, as he did three years ago, that the format of the General Assembly was obsolete.
But he indicated that he had returned because “maybe it’s still usefulPerhaps it will serve, among many other things, for this representative of this small country, the smallest in the American continent, to humbly remind you that these United Nations were not created to divide, destroy or subdue; but to relate to each other, to work together, to build a better community of countries and to seek solutions to the world’s problems”.
He then stated: “I came all the way here, to stand on this podium, in a format that I no longer believe in, to say something that most likely will not change the way powerful countries view America anyway. others. But maybe it will change the way we developing countries see ourselves”.
