I veckans avsnitt fördjupar vi oss i läget i El Salvador och berättar om landets mycket omtalade president Nayib Bukele. Ellen berättar också om sina erfarenheter av El Salvador under Bukeles precis införda undantagstillstånd i mars 2022. Vi pratar om Bolivias närmande till Israel, Kubas eventuella kontakter med USA gällande situationen i Venezuela och om Machados mottagande av Nobels fredspris. Vi tar upp de amerikanska sanktionerna mot ett colombianskt nätverk som anklagas för att ha sänt stridande till Sudan, om Honduras ännu inte fastställda valresultat och om kaoset som utbröt i Brasiliens parlament under ett lagförslag som syftar till att sänka den före detta presidenten Bolsonaros fängelsestraff.
