"The rebirth that our country has experienced, and the freedom we celebrate today, is the result of the constant dedication of our heroes. It is proof that the unthinkable becomes possible when we work together under God's guidance. Together with you, all Salvadorans are finally achieving our happy future. Because the rebirth of our country is based on the security and peace we have today. Because without security, we have nothing."

"Just as we have advanced, we also know that there is still a long way to go. Thank God, the gangs are operationally dismantled, but that does not mean there are no more enemies to defeat. The war against gangs has shown us what we are made of and that we can achieve what we set out to do. But we still have many things to overcome, so that the cancer of gangs never returns, and our country can develop its full potential."

"The tragedy we have just suffered is a painful reminder of the constant risk faced by those who choose to serve their country. Their commitment compels us to continue working harder for a safer and more united country.

Despite the sorrows we may feel along the way, our commitment to progress remains steadfast. It is a duty. It is the least we can do for all those who sacrificed their lives to give us what we have today. We cannot fail them, nor the Salvadoran people."
