Washington. Estados Unidos exhortó este viernes al gobierno de Daniel Ortega en Nicaragua a “liberar de inmediato” a la líder opositora Cristiana Chamorro, considerando su arresto incompatible con elecciones creíbles en noviembre.

“El régimen de Ortega debe liberar de inmediato a la líder opositora Cristiana Chamorro”, manifestó el vocero del Departamento de Estado, Ned Price.
