The Embassy of the United States of America presents its compliments to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of El Salvador and has the honor to request that El Salvador accept, by March 14, 2025, César Antonio Lopez Larios, Mara Salvatrucha (MS-13) gang leader requested by President Bukele, César Eliseo Sorto Amaya, MS-13 gang leader convicted of murder in El Salvador, and up to 500 Venezuelan Tren de Aragua (TdA) members.
The United States understands that El Salvador will take these actions in accordance with its authorities under Salvadoran domestic law, and in a manner that is consistent with El Salvador's international legal obligations regarding human rights and treatment of prisoners, including the Convention Against Torture. Further, with regard to the TdA members, the United States understands El Salvador intends to accommodate them for a duration of one year unless or until a determination concerning their long-term disposition is made.
