"World's Coolest Dictator" Offers "Free" Passports to Skilled Workers | Vantage with Palki Sharma

El Salvador is offering 5,000 “free passports” to highly skilled workers from abroad. This is President Nayib Bukele's plan to boost the country’s economy with foreign investment. El Salvador's economy is struggling, with the country posting the slowest economic growth in Central America. Extreme poverty has doubled since 2019 and almost half the population lives with food insecurity. So Bukele wants to import talent to boost the economy. Scientists, engineers, doctors, artists, and philosophers will be granted “full citizen status” including voting rights, but will anyone apply for the scheme? Palki Sharma tells you.
