Bukele's overwhelming victory last Sunday over the rest of the contending political forces makes him the first Salvadoran president elected for a second consecutive term

 

Havana, Feb 7 (RHC) Cuban president Miguel Díaz-Canel today congratulated his counterpart from El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, for his re-election for a second term of government in that Central American nation.

En la red social X, el mandatario de la isla caribeña auguró a Bukele éxitos en la nueva gestión de gobierno y le ratificó la voluntad de la parte cubana de avanzar en el fortalecimiento de las relaciones bilaterales entre ambos países.

On social network X, Díaz-Canel wished Bukele success in the new government administration and ratified Cuba’s willingness to move forward in strengthening bilateral relations between both countries.

The candidate of the Nuevas Ideas party achieved an overwhelming victory last Sunday over the rest of the contending political forces, which will make him the first Salvadoran president elected for a second consecutive term.

According to Bukele himself, in a speech from the National Palace after the first results of the elections were known, his option would have won the presidency of the country with 85 percent of the votes.

Likewise, Nuevas Ideas also obtained victory in the Legislative Assembly with 58 of the 60 deputies to the nation's parliament, which consolidates its power to continue promoting economic and social transformations in that nation.

Numerous governments such as Mexico, China, Honduras, Guatemala, Panama, and Uruguay, among others, congratulated Nayib Bukele for his victory at the polls, which still generates controversies among his adversaries.

Since 1983, the current Salvadoran Constitution prohibits immediate presidential reelection, but an interpretation by judges of the Constitutional Chamber of the judiciary in that country gave the green light to the possibility of consecutive reelection of the president. (Source: PL)
