During the Cold War, El Salvador became a focal point of U.S. intervention in Central America, as it was seen as vital in the struggle against communism. The U.S. supported the Salvadoran government and military in their conflict against leftist guerrilla groups, particularly the Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front (FMLN). This support included military aid, training, and funding, which contributed to a violent civil war from 1980 to 1992, resulting in significant human rights abuses. The conflict was part of the broader U.S. strategy to contain Soviet influence in Latin America.
