El Salvador's Vice-President Félix Ulloa fiercely defended his country's crackdown on criminal gangs in what he described as "the miracle of Bukele" in an interview with Euronews, saying only the woke and left-wing European media disagree.
Ulloa, a lawyer by training, is one of the key engineers of an unprecedented state-led operation to eliminate gang violence under Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele, who has been in power since 2019. The criminality rate in what used to be one of the most dangerous countries in Latin America has collapsed, but critics point to an increasingly authoritarian turn.
