Salvadoran Diaspora Questions President Bukele's Silence on Deportee Support

Salvadoran communities across the United States are expressing growing concern over what they perceive as a lack of support and communication from President Nayib Bukele's government regarding deported citizens and those facing immigration challenges. Community leaders, particularly from areas like Long Island, have voiced their questions, noting the significant support the Salvadoran diaspora provided during President Bukele's re-election. Despite the strong ties and the diaspora's crucial role in his electoral success, many feel that the Salvadoran government, including Ambassador Milena Mayorga, has remained silent on issues affecting Salvadorans deported from the U.S. or those facing migratory persecution. There have been no announced projects or programs aimed at providing benefits or assistance to this vulnerable population. The community is now openly asking why President Bukele, who reportedly enjoys good relations with U.S. officials, has not addressed these pressing concerns or offered a clear plan to support his citizens abroad, especially in times of distress and increased migratory enforcement.
