Solidarity shown with El Salvador’s FMLN

The 45th anniversary of the founding of El Salvador’s Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front was marked at Fairfield Park on October 26.

Representatives from Kaura Yerta/Adelaide and Naarm/Melbourne attended the event, where they received a message from Manuel Flores, FMLN general secretary in El Salvador, and other Latin Americans.

The struggle continues, in spite of the re-election of El Salvador’s right-wing authoritarian president Nayib Bukele.

Aland Cesar Quintana, the national coordinator of FMLN members in Australia, noted that the FMLN was formed in 1980 by five different parties, including Indigenous groups, academics, peasants, workers, youth, artists, students, and women, to fight US imperialism.

This led to a bloody war, resulting in the deaths of 75,000 people.
