Presidential Election In El Salvador

EDM number 1228 in 2008-09, proposed by Simon Hughes on 31/03/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Latin America and Election results : international.

That this House congratulates the people of El Salvador on the peaceful presidential election that took place on 15 March 2009; recognises the significance of the victory of Mauricio Funes of the FMLN after 20 years of rule by the ARENA party, given that a non-violent transfer of power is a key principle of democratic states; notes that the peace accords were signed as recently as 1992, after a brutal civil war in which 75,000 people were killed; welcomes accordingly the spirit of cooperation between ordinary members of the FMLN and ARENA parties on the day of the election; and hopes that the political progress made in El Salvador can be an inspiration to other post-conflict nations across the globe.

This motion has been signed by a total of 32 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
