The Sandinista revolution has massive support within Nicaragua. The U.S.’s interference and sanctions should be opposed. Nicaragua’s fight for sovereignty and pursuit of an independent path should be supported.
Right now the issue for the U.S. interventionist machinery in Nicaragua is the coming election to be held on 7 November 2021 with the likely victory of the FSLN. The US is desperate to discredit these elections by orchestrating a stream of media-oriented provocations that may allow it not to recognise the results.
Interview with Nicaraguan minister Paul Oquist, who argues that the US is a major obstacle in the way of humanity achieving cooperation to solve our problems. The US has a policy of constant aggression against progressive governments in Latin America and is launching a new cold war against China.
Recent events in Latin America entirely refute the claim in the Western media that the right wing was carrying all before it in the continent.
US-aligned right wing forces have been advancing in Latin America over the past three years. They have capitalised on the political instability created by an economic crisis which has engulfed the region following the crash in commodity prices in 2014. Their agenda is to reverse the huge social gains delivered by socialist and left wing governments throughout Latin America since the turn of the century and subordinate the region’s governments to US policy.
Tomás Borge Martínez, the historic Nicaraguan revolutionary leader, died on 30 April aged 81. Borge had been a consistent and leading fighter at the centre of Nicaraguans’ struggles against dictatorship and imperialism for decades. He was an intellectual driving force of the revolutionary socialist movement and was revered by the left in Nicaragua.
