Salvadoran President Tony Saca said Tuesday he would be willing to send more humanitarian troops to Iraq despite the ongoing threat of terror attacks against U.S. allies there.
EI Salvador is the only Latin American country with troops in Iraq following the withdrawal of Honduran, Nicaraguan and Dominican soldiers who had served under the Ultra-Plus Brigade formerly led by Spain.
Spain withdrew troops after terrorist attacks on March 11, 2004, in Madrid. The attacks killed 191 people on four commuter trains, prompting voters to elect a new prime minister who opposed the war in Iraq.
El Salvador has been sending humanitarian troops to Iraq since Au gust 2003. The fourth contingent is scheduled to return home next month.
"With or without troops" in Iraq, the terrorism danger "for the country and for the world is enormous," Saca said. "We cannot bow down in the face of terrorism, or be afraid."
Saca said if he does send a fifth contingent, it would be with the understanding that they would continue to serve in a humanitarian lash
ion, helping with postwar reconstruction.
Despite the peaceful nature of their work, Salvadorans have been drawn involuntarily into combat situations. One soldier died and 12 others were wounded during an attack by Iraqi insurgents in April 2004.
A second soldier died last month after a car hit him while he was changing a tire.
