The Ortega regime and its delirium of establishing a “single party in Nicaragua”
Juan Carlos Ortega Murillo, son of the presidential couple, is betting on the implantation of a “single party” regime in Nicaragua. The sanctioned man published two texts on his Twitter account where he attacks the “party system” and the “Western democratic model”, the latter, he assured, “is in decline.”
“The Western democratic model is in decline. Its review and transformation is urgent. And the result should be to obtain greater power of direct decision from the municipalities on the general budget of the republic », he wrote on Twitter.
This “one party” model is the same as that applied in countries under dictatorial regimes such as Cuba, China and North Korea. The Nicaraguan dictatorship has made rapprochements with all these countries or maintains trade relations.
Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo have installed a de facto single party system in the country by eliminating the legal status of various political parties such as the Sandinista Renovation Movement (MRS), the Democratic Restoration Party (PRD), the Conservative Party (PC) and Ciudadanos por the Freedom (CxL).
In two, he snatched the legal representation of the Nicaraguan Liberal Alliance (ALN) and the Independent Liberal Party (PLI) from Eduardo Montealegre, later they founded CxL and canceled its legal personality at the request of the Constitutionalist Liberal Party (PLC), a group that performs comparsa in the National Assembly to the Ortega regime.
