«The House of Sovereignty is constituted as a center in its field and integral formation with a high sense of the historical task, which it is up to it to assume to contribute to the project of equity and social justice that the peoples of our America demand, committed and committed so that thousands and thousands of people of all ages pass through this house, eager to learn about and contribute to revolutionary thought,” said the president of the National Council of Universities (CNU), Ramona Rodríguez.
The property, located on the outskirts of Managua, had been in police custody since April 24, when the Ortega government announced the expulsion from the country of the OAS delegation. The organization rented its office in Managua to private individuals, which was declared of public utility by the Nicaraguan State.
The members of the regional body unanimously condemned the occupation of the property in Managua at the time. Nicaragua announced on April 24 its decision to withdraw the credentials of its representatives to the OAS, as well as the closure of the offices of that organization in Managua.
This decision came three days after the Permanent Council of the OAS, with the absence of Nicaragua, approved suspending Russia, its ally, as a permanent observer, in punishment for the invasion of Ukraine and in a bid to further isolate Moscow. at the international level.
That day Nicaragua ratified its “invariable decision” to leave the OAS, a measure adopted since November 19, 2021 and which will take two years to be effective, that is, until November 2023.
