Territorial Sovereignty

Kilvett Bertrand, president of Congress's Defense and Sovereignty Commission, said El Salvador President Nayib Bukele's recent remarks affirm Honduras's sovereignty over Isla Conejo and should resolve any dispute over the territory.

Honduras's Defense Ministry said international bodies have three times confirmed that Isla Conejo belongs to Honduras, dismissing reports of Salvadoran displeasure over the president's recent visit to the island during bilateral cease-fire commemorations.
