After the news of Telegram founder Pavel Durov's arrest, Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele posted on X:
"El Salvador is not only the safest country in the Western Hemisphere, but we also guarantee that you will not be arrested, censored, or have your assets seized for exercising your right to freedom of expression, and we have no property tax."
