AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

US Aid Cuts Backlash: A new Human Rights Watch report released May 14 says the Trump-era decision to slash nearly all foreign aid in early 2025 was “chaotic and abrupt,” freezing investigations and wiping out victim support across 16 countries—turning human-rights work into a vacuum that autocrats could exploit. El Salvador–US Economic Push: In parallel, El Salvador is leaning into investment diplomacy: U.S. Deputy Secretary Caleb Orr visited San Salvador’s Historic Center and met officials on energy and business cooperation, with both sides pointing to AI, digital infrastructure, and nearshoring as growth magnets. Digital Finance Growth: El Salvador also keeps tightening its crypto framework—CNAD granted Bitfinex a DASP license to expand regulated trading under one umbrella. Payments Expansion Regionwide: Outside El Salvador, RS2 signed a long-term processing deal to expand acquiring and issuing services into El Salvador and neighbors. Road Safety for Kids: The Historic Center is hosting a free child-focused road safety simulation until May 14, using hands-on scenarios to teach safe mobility.
