Julio Adolfo Rey Prendes - Adolfo Majano Ramos - El Salvador 1980

El Salvador: Testimony of the mayor of San Salvador, Julio Adolfo Rey Prendes where he expresses: - "In these periods of growth towards democracy there is always a crisis and especially when a past is inherited as the revolutionary government junta inherits. A past 50 years of military governments, of frauds, of deceiving the people in democratic processes and in recent times I also inherit total anarchy in this country. I inherit a disrespect for authority and hierarchies. I inherit a circumstance in which power, shall we say , the Presidency of the Republic had lost authority in this country. " Image of a corpse covered by a blanket and burning candles on its sides during a wake. Women with children watching over the person killed by the guerrillas. Woman mourning the death of man. Men placing the body in a coffin. Press conference of Colonel Adolfo Majano Ramos where he expresses: - "That all of us who are directly involved in this crisis that is getting worse hour by hour as long as fair and realistic solutions are not taken, we must be willing and stand aside voluntarily for the sake of this unit military, for the sake of the proper functioning of the government and for the sake of the successful development of the process, without prejudice of course to the will to fight, contributing all our efforts to the end for the benefit of our beloved and suffering Salvadoran people.
