Dora María Téllez: Ortega transformed the Republic of Nicaragua into a “res publica”

The researcher and historian Dora María Téllez criticized the regime of Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo for the reform and repeal of Law 800 and 840, respectively, which are related to the Grand Interoceanic Canal, the failed project of the Sandinista government.

Through her YouTube channel, the former Sandinista guerrilla published a video where she stated that “Selling fantasies is the Ortega-Murillo family’s favorite sport. Téllez denounced that “for more than 15 years,” the dictatorial couple “has tried to defraud the Nicaraguan people, promising fantasies.”

The expressed politician indicated that among the false promises of Ortega’s movement are “the refinery of the Bolívar dream, the great highway between Managua and Puerto Cabezas, which the Venezuelan army was going to build, the coastal highway that they have not even been able to pave. And so on, lots of promises until they reached the one from the Canal, which they signed with the scammer. Wang Jing, that he was nothing more than a front man for the Ortega-Murillo family.

After almost 11 years of having promulgated Law 800, Law of the Legal Regime and Creation of the Authority of the Grand Interoceanic Canal of Nicaragua, and granting a “huge concession” to the company HKND, belonging to the Chinese businessman, Téllez stated that ” The whole project was a fiasco” and that “We Nicaraguans already knew it was a lie.”

The historian highlighted that the idea of ​​the Canal was “a way to steal Nicaragua’s resources, to steal the lands of the indigenous peoples.”

Legal changes hide “other things”

However, after the repeal of Law 840 and the reform of Law 800, carried out last Wednesday, April 8; Téllez considered that the Ortega regime “hides other things” behind his urgent decision.

«They repeal Law 840 because there is a threat from the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (IACHR) to issue a condemnatory sentence, but they leave Law 800 alive and modify it to allow them to grant concessions ‘with full hands’ to new figureheads, who appear as Chinese investors,” said the activist.

The released politician pointed out that the ruling couple “already has three large mining concessions” and that there are “a large number of Chinese businesses, shops, importers and sellers, wholesalers and retailers, that are deploying in the departments of the country, competing in conditions of inequality with Nicaraguans.

Téllez highlighted that Chinese companies and businessmen “do not pay taxes” to the Ortega State, since their payment method “are large commissions to the Ortega-Murillo family because (those) behind them are their front men or enormous commissions to give them concessions in days to newly formed companies.

The researcher warned that Nicaragua “continues to be converted and the condition is threatening to become worse. “The country, instead of being a Republic, is a public res that the Ortega-Murillos dismantle at their whim and pleasure, to obtain and concentrate wealth.”

The former Sandinista militant added that only the dictatorial couple can have control of the country, “because everyone who wants to compete with the corruption of the Ortega family is purged because the new model of power needs new loyal people, no longer the old ones.”

“This consolidation of dynastic power that they intend requires that they ‘pass the bill’ to all those who are not strictly loyal to the new axis of power that has been configured in the Ortega-Murillo family,” said the activist.

Téllez reiterated that “behind this reform to Law 800, more concessions and advantages are distributed to Chinese, or supposedly Chinese, companies, behind which the Ortega Murillo family will undoubtedly be.”

The historian maintained that “what we are seeing is a power in decomposition, a power that resorts to more and more repressive mechanisms because it is afraid, because it is weak, because it does not have the will of the Nicaraguan people.”
