Bukele challenges Hillary Clinton to take El Salvador's entire prison population after criticism

After Hillary Clinton shared a documentary highlighting alleged mistreatment of deported migrants in El Salvador's CECOT prison, President Nayib Bukele challenged her to accept the country's entire prison population. The documentary featured Venezuelan men deported from the U.S. and labeled as gang members, who were then incarcerated in CECOT. Bukele offered to release all prisoners, including gang leaders and those described as "political prisoners," to any country willing to take them, arguing it would provide ample sources for critical testimonies. He stated that El Salvador would continue prioritizing the rights of Salvadorans free from gang rule. Bukele previously agreed to house deported migrants in CECOT as part of a relationship with the Trump administration.
