Siempre nos dijeron que vivir en paz era imposible, hasta que demostramos que sí se podía. Gracias a Dios, nunca los escuchamos. Hoy, más que nunca, estoy convencido de que esto es posible en cualquier lugar. Y nuestros hermanos de Costa Rica también van a lograrlo 🇸🇻🇨🇷— Nayib Bukele (@nayibbukele) · Oct 18, 2026 · 14:10 (El Salvador time)

Bukele says France "could do it in a week" after the unrest there

On Sunday, October 18, President Nayib Bukele posted a message in French on X about the cost-of-living riots in France. According to El Diario de Hoy's translation, he said El Salvador overcame "in one year a problem a hundred times more serious" without the resources France has, and that France "could do it in a week". Infobae notes that Bukele did not specify which problem he meant. Outlets give different arrest figures for France, so we leave them out.
