EL SALVADOR: FMLN challenges Funes
Far from the boon it initially appeared, last year's rupture in the
main opposition Alianza Republicana Nacionalista (Arena) has created a new set
of problems for President Mauricio Funes. With the Right no longer serving as a
check on the ruling Frente Farabundo Martí para la Liberación Nacional (FMLN),
the left-wing party - aligned with the radicalism of regional leaders such as
Venezuela's President Hugo Chávez rather than the moderate line preferred by
Funes - has become increasingly combative and aggressive in its stance against
the President.
