In a Twitter post, the 37-year-old Bukele confirmed news reports that invitations were not being extended to Juan Orlando Hernandez, president of neighboring Honduras, Daniel Ortega, president of Nicaragua, or Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. The 2017 re-election of Hernandez, a conservative ally of the United States, has been questioned by many, including Bukele, due to a disputed vote count that took weeks to resolve.
Ortega, a former Marxist guerrilla and Cold War antagonist of Washington, has faced international condemnation for Nicaragua’s a heavy-handed crackdown on months of protests that he has described as part of a plot to oust him.
