A second worrying factor is the FMLN’s links to Cuba and Venezuela. As recently as a year ago, anyone who visited FMLN headquarters in San Salvador to interview, for example, Ceren, its Secretary General, would be struck by the overwhelming presence of Chávez: red shirts, red berets, pictures of the Venezuelan caudillo, quotations from his teachings and musings.
第二个令人担忧的因素是马解阵线与古巴和委内瑞拉的联系。近在一年前，若谁去马解阵线设在圣萨尔瓦多的总部去采访总书记塞伦，他将为那里的无处不在的查韦斯的影响而头晕目眩：红色衬衣和红色贝雷帽、这位委内瑞拉领袖的画像以及他的语录和思想的标语。
