It has been nearly five years since El Salvador’s authoritarian(威权的) leader, Nayib Bukele, launched his controversial(有争议的) “war” on gangs – transforming his country’s fortunes(改变国家命运) and becoming a hard-right beacon(极右翼灯塔) for Latin America’s fight against violent crime.
近五年前，萨尔瓦多的威权领导人纳伊布·布克莱发起了备受争议的“打击黑帮战争”——这场战争改变了该国的命运，也使布克莱成为拉丁美洲打击暴力犯罪的极右翼灯塔。
Now the Salvadoran populist(民粹主义者) seems intent on(决心要) exporting his hardline(强硬的) tactics to the region’s most violence-stricken(饱受暴力侵袭的) nation, Haiti. He has sent more than 2,000 troops and special forces to the Caribbean country since four citizens of El Salvador were abducted(被绑架) there on 18 October.
如今，这位萨尔瓦多民粹主义者似乎有意将其强硬手段输出到该地区暴力最猖獗的国家——海地。自10月18日四名萨尔瓦多公民在海地被绑架以来，他已向这个加勒比国家派遣了2000多名士兵和特种部队。
“We will help you reclaim(夺回) your country from the hands of the traitors(叛徒) who betrayed the legacy of Dessalines(海地革命领袖德萨林),” Bukele tweeted in Haitian Creole this week, in reference to(关于，指) one of the leaders of the Haitian Revolution, Jean-Jacques Dessalines.
“我们将帮助你们从背叛德萨林遗产的叛徒手中夺回你们的国家，”布克莱本周用海地克里奥尔语发推文说，他指的是海地革命领袖之一让-雅克·德萨林。
