Ricardo Zúñiga, @StateDept Special Envoy to the Northern Triangle, is in #ElSalvador today in Washington's first visit to #CentAm since Biden took office. Photo: Zúñiga, left, during a meeting yesterday with members of the Guatemalan justice system. Image
There is a stark contrast between Zúñiga's two-day visit to Guatemala, which begain with a meeting with @DrGiammattei, and his one-day trip to El Salvador. State Dept sources say he has no plans to meet with @nayibbukele.
His first meeting in El Salvador will be with the @OEA_CICIES and @MelaraRaul at 4:45 EST. He will then meet at the @USEmbassySV with representatives of various pro-transparency organizations from civil society, including @fusades, @Fundeorg, @CiudadanaAccio1 y @FundacionDTJ.

#ElSalvador | President @nayibbukele’s confrontation with the Congress over the financing for his security plan has the country on edge. The president has ordered Congress to come to session on Sunday, called for a protest the same day, and talks about “insurrection.”
@nayibbukele It’s the first time in years a president has called for an “extraordinary session” of Congress, and the only time *demanding* members vote on a funding bill. He is basing this demand on Article 167 of the Constitution.
@nayibbukele Salvadoran President Bukele has threatened members of Congress with “consequences” if they don’t meet what he has called “their constitutional obligation.”
