Washington. Daniel Ortega impuso “una dictadura basada en el personalismo” en Nicaragua, afirmó este martes Ricardo Zúñiga, secretario adjunto para asuntos de las Américas en el Departamento de Estado estadounidense.

“Nicaragua es una dictadura pura y simplemente, una autoridad que carece de cualquier mandato democrático”, dijo durante una conferencia de prensa telefónica después de que Ortega ganara el domingo unas elecciones precedidas por el arresto de opositores, la ilegalización de partidos y la represión.
