2019年，萨尔瓦多举行总统大选，中右翼政党民族团结大联盟候选人纳伊布·布克尔当选。新政府的政策推行面临挑战。经济基本政策以创造稳定的商业贸易环境、吸引投资和促进贸易为主，侨汇收入依旧是萨尔瓦多促进经济增长的主要动力之一。打击黑帮和反腐是新政府的首要任务。新政府实施《领土控制计划》，萨尔瓦多凶杀率大幅下降；成立终止有罪不罚现象国际委员会，加强反腐措施。在外交领域，萨尔瓦多总统访华进一步加强了中萨关系；移民问题导致萨美关系紧张。
In 2019，Nayib Bukele，presidential candidate of the centre-right Gran Alianza por la Unidad Nacional，won in the general election of El Salvador. Bukele’s government is facing policy challenges. Economic growth is still slow，and the economic policies center on the creation of a stable atmosphere of business and trade，introduce investment and promote trade，and remittance income still played one of the main important factors to the economic growth. Fighting against gangsters and anti-corruption are on the priority agenda of the new government. In the social area，the murder rate declines，Bukele’s new public security plan，known as the Plan de Control Territorial is implemented. The International Commission against Impunity in El Salvador is founded for anti-corruption. In the diplomatic field，the President Nayib Bukele visited China，which promoted the bilateral relations between China and El Salvador. The immigration issues had negative impacts on the prospects between the US and El Salvador.
