El Salvador aprova reeleição presidencial por tempo indeterminado e estende mandatos para 6 anos

El Salvador's legislature, dominated by President Nayib Bukele's party, approved constitutional changes allowing indefinite presidential reelection and extending terms from five to six years, while also eliminating the second round of presidential elections. Bukele, already re‑elected despite a prior constitutional ban, faces criticism for consolidating power since 2021, when his party removed top Supreme Court judges. Critics warn the changes threaten democracy, while supporters argue they empower voters. Bukele remains popular due to his hard‑on‑gang policies, though concerns about authoritarianism and human‑rights abuses grow.
