“I announce that this September 30 we will present before the Legislative Assembly for the first time in decades the first fully financed budget, without the need to take a single cent of debt for current spending,” said Bukele on Sunday, during the commemoration of the 203 years of El Salvador’s independence. “El Salvador will no longer spend more than it produces annually,” he continued. “We will not even lend money to pay the interest on the debts that we inherited, we will even pay that from our own production.”
