Bukele has agreed to accept deportees, including alleged gang members, and has already detained over 250 in a notorious Salvadoran prison.<\/p>\n<p>Trump has highlighted the cooperative efforts between the U.S. and El Salvador to combat gang activities and foster economic ties. The U.S. has previously imposed tariffs on Salvadoran goods, but Trump recently announced a pause on most of them, noting that El Salvador exports a significant amount of goods to the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the State Department has downgraded its travel advisory for El Salvador, a move Bukele celebrated.
