El Salvador eröffnet seinem Präsidenten den Weg, auf unbestimmte Zeit an der Macht zu bleiben. Warum Kritiker nicht überrascht sind

While it’s true that the president has significantly reduced El Salvador’s homicide rate, stabilized the economy and brought a sense of public order, the recent move to enable indefinite rule operates on an entirely different plane. Altering constitutional limits, even after tangible successes, shifts governance away from democratic legitimacy toward personalist authority. The achievements become rhetorical tools rather than mandates, and the language used to justify the power extension leans on national progress to obscure the erosion of institutional checks.

In short,when leaders rewrite the rules mid-game it’s never really about the people.

Many brutal dictators start as populair leaders. Not that suprising sadly.
