He did the right thing and the people have awarded him with another term. Good for him.

[allicientisglobal]

Bukele might be the best president in the world. Al Jazeera, instead of talking negative about him, you should point out the positive, perhaps you would get more viewers instead of loosing them

[jreyben]

Subtitles are wrong. He didn’t say don’t be scared of me. He said “Don’t trust me”…”trust the people of El Salvador”

[sammy]

He is not a dictator, if you know the countries history and what people want. People love him so they keep voting for him. Let salvadoreans decide whats bedt for them. Leave bukele alone he is good man

[anhaia_natty]

The title you have chosen for this piece it's exactly what he is talking about..the media is against him because he does not fit in the agenda of the people behind you all.

[ggracias]

Bikele calls himself “the worlds coolest dictator” as a way to troll those in mainstream media that call him a dictator

Men who allow God to guide them, are blessed. Their path is blessed. Hallelujah!! El Salvador deserves their peace and safety. He’s not a dictator.

[cahseeka]

Al Jezeera and other mainstream media news outlets got the title wrong. He's not a dictator. He did what he needed to do prevent any more murders and create a sense of security for the citizens and visitors of El Salvador. Glad that the country is being run by a leader who values human life and opportunity versus previous administrations controlled by gangsters.

As a salvadorian he is not a dictator hes an extrimist for sure but he did what needed to be done and was reward with another term because of it.

[clubmike]

The man knows how to get the results the people want.

For the record: The s
ubtitles are wrong. He didn’t say don’t be scared of me. He said “Don’t trust me”…”trust the people of El Salvador”

[jennifer_ortiz]

[eNjoiipiNoY]

Why call this man a dictator? I had the pleasure of visiting El Salvador in 2021 during his term and I felt more safe there than I did in the USA. I wouldn't hesitate to go visit again.

[mokiloke]

Why do the media insist on giving him a bad name. Hes done great things for El Salvadorians as far as i can tell. And a bitcoin Maxi

[bethzaelibethzaeli]

How unprofessional you are Al Jazeera! Not even a proper translation.

[mariejules]

[paulbucklebuckle]

Wasn't he voted in twice, hes not dictating hes doing what he said he would do . Very rare indeed from politicians.

[jenniferfuentes]

What a nasty video horrendous job with your translation. Maybe it was done on propose so your headline matched "his words" As a Salvadoran who is grateful for all the improvement our country has had, I can say, Leave EL Salvador alone, if you do not know our history and all the tears WE all cried while being Terrorized by gangs the blood than ran for decades all over our streets from all crime we used to have. It has been proven, 82% + salvadorans are extremely grateful to Nayib for bringing peace to our country, for giving our children the freedom to play in a public playground, because for your information, that was the reality we used to faced. Playgrounds were a place to for gang meetings. I would suggest you deliver more accurate information in your videos.

Many people angry because of Israel-Palestine while Salvadorians applaud him.
