(Cecise). “We have decided that we are going to terminate our contract with the OAS-Cicies as president because it is utter nonsense that we are trying to fight the punishment precisely with the people who promote the punishment in El Salvador,” Buckell told a news conference.

President of El Salvador accuses OAS Secretary-General Luis Almacro of promoting punishment In a country that has appointed an adviser to former mayor Ernesto Mushond, who faces two criminal charges. “The Secretary-General is punishing or trying to convict the perpetrator of Salvador. He (Almacro) knew about this.”The president told a news conference.

“We can not make another possible decision (terminate the contract with the OAS General Secretariat). How can we proceed with the Anti-Penalty Commission on someone who has not convicted an offender?” Buckell inquired.

He added that his government would “seek the support of the international community” to establish another commission to fight punishment and corruption. “It will be hard to see all the rubbish and rot behind these (international) companies, but we are going to achieve it.”, He concluded.

The decision to end the CICIES came at a time when the international community was questioning Buckeye for trying to consolidate power with the help of Congress, which removed a panel of judges and the attorney general.

“I faced a dictatorial and authoritarian regime that sent criminal gangs of an innocent labor minister, a puppet public prosecutor, to pressurize the judges, their false news, harassment, harassment and persecution. I introduced myself and showed my face. Today I am a political prisonerHe posted on his Twitter account. The politician said he had Attorney General Rodolfo Delgado in charge and “Salvador’s leader Naib Buchale” in charge of “any attempt against my life”.
