El Salvador to End Work With OAS Anti-impunity Mission
Voice of America
SAN SALVADOR, EL SALVADOR - El Salvador's new attorney general announced Friday that he would end the cooperation agreement between his office and an anti-impunity mission from the Organization of American States that was supporting the country's justice system.
Attorney General Rodolfo Delgado, who was named to the post last month by the congress, suggested the move was triggered by the OAS naming former San Salvador Mayor Ernesto Muyshondt as an adviser. Delgado said that he would ask the Foreign Ministry to cancel the agreement and that cooperation with the mission would end in 30 days. "We are open to working with the international community and receiving support in the fight against impunity, but it is not possible to receive this kind of support from an organization that now has the advice of a criminal," he said.More Related News
