The President of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele announces:

- Huge reduction in the size of the state

- The 262 mayors of the country will become 44.

- The 82 seats in Congress will now be 60.

- War against corruption: crimes of corruption do not prescribe and will prosecute those who have defrauded the State.

The reason for eliminating so many mayoralties and reorganizing the territorial structure is to lighten the public burden, the bureaucracy, streamline the economy and reduce state corruption.
