International trade and bilateral agreements:
a boost to El Salvador’s growth and resilience
Ambassador of El Salvador to India
With a global landscape full of challenges and transformations in international trade, El Salvador has embraced this reality and
sees this context as an opportunity to strengthen its economy and guarantee provisions.
Likewise, this situation has made it possible to create a favourable business climate, positioning the country as a reliable
economic and trade partner. Under the leadership of President Nayib Bukele, the country is moving forward with a
pragmatic and vertical vision, building strategic alliances that directly benefit Salvadorans.
In this context, the signing of bilateral trade agreements emerges as a central strategy. These agreements not only
eliminate tariff barriers and facilitate the flow of goods but also generate confidence and legal stability for investment and
trade relations. For El Salvador, opening channels with powers such as India, China, and regional allies reinforces the
country’s commitment to strengthening its economy. President Bukele’s administration has implemented concrete
measures to boost trade, such as the suspension of tariffs on essential products and the promotion of fair and mutually
beneficial trade relations. This commitment reflects intelligent economic sovereignty: the new El Salvador negotiates firmly,
prioritizing the growth and well-being of its population.
With a more open and connected economy, the country is laying the foundations for a stable and prosperous future.
International trade, supported by strong and diversified partnerships, is a fundamental pillar of this transformation,
demonstrating that, even in a complex global scenario, El Salvador is moving forward resolutely toward greater
opportunities for all.
