AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Democratic Crisis: A new analysis says the Ortega-Murillo government has weakened checks on executive power, narrowed civic space and left elections without meaningful competition. Another report argues recent constitutional changes have removed legal paths to a change of government. Regional Pressure: Nicaragua’s immediate withdrawal from the Central American Parliament followed an OAS call to release political prisoners, restore civil liberties and prepare for free elections. The EU has extended sanctions on the government through 2027. Repression and Exile: Reports say a Nicaraguan torture survivor was jailed again after deportation from the U.S., while exiled journalists face growing uncertainty over their immigration status.
