The regime of Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo appealed, this Tuesday, December 10, to the Central American Court of Justice (CCJ) through a “request for mandatory consultation” with which they seek a response from the regional justice instance that forces four member countries of the Central American Integration System (SICA) to elect one of the political operators proposed by Managua as regional secretary of the organization.
The chancellor of the dictatorship, who is also one of the regime’s candidates rejected in the SICA, Valdrack Jaentschke, appeared at the CCJ, to deliver the consultation request that was received by Tania Montiel, interim general secretary of the institution.
The Managua regime, which has ignored how many resolutions the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (Court-IDH) has issued, alleges in its request to the CCJ that “Nicaragua is a country that respects the Integration System” and accuses other governments of “obstruction.” “of SICA “by not meeting, by not processing the different efforts,” according to the Ortega chancellor.
Jaentschke referred, without mentioning them, to Guatemala, Costa Rica, Panama and the Dominican Republic, which have rejected the Managua regime’s shortlists on at least four occasions because they considered that the proposed candidates do not meet the requirements for the position of general secretary of SICA. .

The diplomat of the dictatorship pointed out that on three occasions they have proposed “high-quality colleagues, with a lot of experience and a lot of knowledge in the Central American Integration System,” but in reality he refers to political operators loyal to the dictators and all sanctioned by the international community and some of them identified as criminals against humanity.
Jaentschke repeatedly accused the countries that have rejected the dictatorship’s shortlists of being “obstructionists” because “they have not wanted to meet or have indicated that the shortlists do not meet, for them, the qualities.”
Points out politicization of SICA
For the political operator of the dictatorship placed in the Foreign Ministry, the position assumed by the Guatemalan, Costa Rican, Panamanian and Dominican governments “is nothing more than a politicized drive and leads to the politicization of the Central American Integration System.”
Likewise, he recalled that, since November 14 of last year, when the organization was left without a general secretary due to the surprise “resignation” of Werner Vargas, they have asked the Council of Foreign Ministers to “review, propose and accept the shortlists that Nicaragua proposed », but they have not achieved it.
They insist on their rights but do not propose suitable candidates
Jaentschke maintained that Nicaragua reiterates its willingness to “continue working, to resume the institutionality in the Central American Integration System,” but conditions that “the situation of acephaly, lack of leadership, does not continue to exist, because no decision can be made, no “SICA can advance without a secretary general.”

Moncada.
Given the rejection of its candidates for the SG-SICA, the Ortega-Murillo regime has reacted aggressively against the governments of Guatemala, Costa Rica, Panama and the Dominican Republic, which it has even called servile, insubordinate and insane.
