Last update: 8 hours agoElections Shut Down: Nicaragua’s President Daniel Ortega declared there will be “no more elections” in the country, saying the move blocks a U.S.-backed opposition from “seizing the government” and pledging new laws to “build a wall” against “coup plotters” and “traitors.” The announcement, delivered during the 47th anniversary Sandinista Revolution rally in Managua, effectively ends any electoral path for challengers as Ortega and co-president Rosario Murillo tighten control after disputed 2021 polls and constitutional changes that extended terms. Human Rights & Church Under Pressure: A researcher denounced the forced disappearance of Bishop Abelardo Mata as a “crime against humanity,” saying he has been missing for days after police detained him following Mass prayers for persecuted clergy. Regional Context: Nicaragua’s political crackdown continues to draw international condemnation, while the wider region also faces renewed scrutiny and diplomatic tensions.
