Honduras and El Salvador leaders in talks today on customs union

Friday, October 20, 2017


Today, Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández will meet with Salvadoran President Salvador Sánchez Cerén in the border post of El Amatillo to discuss adding El Salvador to the customs union between Honduras and Guatemala.

Adding El Salvador to the union would make transporting goods easier for all three countries. Honduras and Guatemala agreed to form their customs union in 2015 and formally launched it this past June.
