It’s their second major release in two months, compounding U.N. evidence-gathering on the Ortega-Murillo regime as the 2018 state repression turns seven years old.Days before Nayib Bukele is set to meet with Donald Trump at the White House, the State Department certifies his government as respectful of human rights and softens the advisory for U.S. citizens traveling to El Salvador.
