In El Salvador, a group of environmentalists opposing metallic mining accused Ayib Bukele's
00:05
government of persecution and harassment.
00:08
The environmentalists pointed out that the government and presumed defenders of mining
00:12
have systematically orchestrated smear campaigns against them to generate hatred and criminalize
00:18
the protests against the activity.
00:20
Precisely, the demonstration happened after the Salvadoran Congress controlled by Bukele
00:25
gave the green light to a law promoted by the president to reactivate metallic mining,
00:30
which was banned in the country since 2017.
00:34
In this context, environmentalists fear the activity will contaminate the Lempa River,
00:39
which crosses the potential working zone and supply waters to 70% of the inhabitants of
00:46
the capital and surrounding cities.
