WTF is Going on in Latin America & The Caribbean

Nicaragua Vive: a post-inauguration conversation


Listen Later

This episode was broadcast live from Managua, Nicaragua three days after the inauguration of President Daniel Ortega and Vice-President Rosario Murillo. It is a conversation with journalists Camila Escalante of Kawsachun News and Fiorella Mayorca and Jonathan Mayorca of The Convo Couch all of whom attended the inauguration on January 10.

We discuss events leading up to the re-election of the Nicaraguan President and Vice-President and what the continuation of their administration means for the Hemisphere of the Americas.

A few things of regional importance included in the conversation: since winning re-election on November 7, the Ortega government has announced that Nicaragua will leave the OAS and also return to the recognition of The People's Republic of China. As part of the inauguration ceremony November 10, President Ortega announced that Nicaragua will join the Belt and Road Initiative.
