TOUS 4586 Les Etats Unis condamnent le virage autoritaire de Daniel Ortega

Washington has strongly condemned Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega's decision to postpone future elections, seeing it as a further step in the regime's slide toward authoritarianism. The United States accuses the head of state of depriving Nicaraguans of their democratic rights and calls for a return to free and fair elections. This announcement exacerbates tensions between Managua and Washington, against a backdrop of recurring criticism regarding the repression of the opposition and violations of fundamental freedoms.
