0 -> we are honored to be joined right now by
3.48 -> the president of El Salvador president
4.86 -> Mr President thanks so much for coming
7.02 -> on so it sounds to me like you reduced
11.16 -> the murder rate in El Salvador in a
12.719 -> pretty straightforward way I wonder why
15.12 -> other heads of state aren't calling you
17.34 -> for advice on how to do it in their
19.08 -> countries
20.279 -> thank you Tucker for having me and I got
22.92 -> to be here well I don't know every
25.5 -> country I think have has their own
27.119 -> problems I would guess that probably our
30.18 -> approach that is very very popular with
32.64 -> the people has a problem and and the
36.059 -> problem is that it has common sense
38.1 -> and yes I say it's a problem because
40.44 -> usually the new wave of governance is
43.379 -> taking away common sense and started
46.02 -> doing things the other way around the
47.879 -> way that of course you shouldn't do them
50.94 -> so when used it seems like when you
54.84 -> became president in 2019 you focused
57.239 -> very specifically on crime gangs murder
60.539 -> is that correct and why did you do that
63.059 -> why that issue well not only on crime of
65.46 -> course we focus on other issues
67.619 -> Education Health Public Works investment
70.08 -> tourism infrastructure
72.18 -> Etc but of course crime is the most
74.939 -> important thing I mean you you might
77.1 -> enjoy enjoy a road or a beach but that's
79.439 -> if you're alive so of course the lives
81.78 -> of the people are the most important
83.04 -> thing so that's why we focus on crime
86.04 -> more but of course we did focusing on
89.04 -> all the other issues as well
90.72 -> so you've uh threatened to cut off food
93.6 -> to gang members in prison if they don't
95.939 -> stop the killings on the outside do you
99.18 -> think that they are directing those
101.34 -> killings they're responsible for them
102.6 -> and do you think this will work well at
104.28 -> the beginning they were they were
105.54 -> ordering the killings from the prisons
107.04 -> and the prisons they had if you see most
109.32 -> of the persons Latin America they're
111.18 -> like
112.619 -> um
113.159 -> headquarters for Crime they'll be there
116.22 -> they have phones internet access
117.84 -> computers they will give orders uh from
120.899 -> the answer to the outside it's
123.96 -> now you can find everywhere in in
127.32 -> Central and then in America you can find
129.479 -> all of those examples now in the Sabbath
132.12 -> are communicating to the outside it's
133.92 -> it's impossible you can't communicate
136.02 -> from a person to the other side that's
137.879 -> there's the internet access is blocked
140.28 -> it's impossible so but but still all
144.54 -> these gang members are the bosses of the
146.76 -> other gang members outside so of course
149.16 -> uh gang members outside resent if you uh
154.02 -> and what would like if you do something
155.94 -> to their bosses inside the prisons so we
159.42 -> one of the one of the things we did was
161.28 -> we threatened gang members outside that
163.5 -> we will take retaliation with their
165.06 -> people inside if they continue the
167.16 -> killings of innocent people in El
170.58 -> Salvador that actually if if some people
172.98 -> don't know this video so there was
174.66 -> actually the murder capital of the world
176.34 -> I mean we were a lot more dangerous than
179.58 -> Iraq Afghanistan Syria you name it El
182.459 -> Salvador was the worst uh and the most
185.879 -> dangerous place to live it was the
188.099 -> murder capital of the world and now
190.44 -> we're we're on our way to be the safest
192.959 -> country in the whole American continent
