A Salvadoran organization is harshly criticizing a group of U.S. lawmakers who recently formed the "El Salvador caucus," saying that, rather than advancing the relations between the two countries, they are seeking to "whitewash" human rights abuses by the government of Nayib Bukele.
The Committee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador (CISPES) published the allegations on Tuesday, saying that the group emerged as "increasing numbers of international headlines report on widespread human rights violations under Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele's militarized state of exception."
