Governor Martin O’Malley arrived in El Salvador Sunday, becoming the first Maryland governor to do so. There, he signed a memorandum of understanding between the state and El Salvador’s Comisión Ejecutiva Portuaria Autónoma (CEPA), which manages national transportation infrastructure. The deal forms a partnership between Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport and El Salvador International Airport, involving information sharing on airport operations, security, maintenance and training. In time, officials hope the two airports will begin offering direct service between Maryland and El Salvador, the governor’s office announced.
Maryland’s relationship with El Salvador runs deep. Maryland has the fourth largest Salvadorian population in the country, with over 120,000 residents. The state boasts the highest earning Salvadoran population in the United States. In 2012, Maryland businesses participated in $60 million in trade with El Salvador.
