US Keeps Meddling in
Nicaragua Affairs
MANAGUA - The US constantly interferes
in Nicaragua''s internal affairs through its
ambassador here, Sandinista political
circles denounced on Thursday in this
capital.
Such were the statements made by sources
interviewed by Prensa Latina, after
Nicaraguan Ambassador Denis Moncada's
denunciation on Wednesday in the
Organization of American States (OAS), when
he directly alluded to Washington's
representative to this capital Robert
Callahan.
The Nicaraguan diplomat accused Callahan of
meddling in Nicaraguan internal affairs, and
said the latest example occurred this week,
when he refused to attend an meeting to open
a highway section built in Leon department,
with funds from the Millennium Challenge
Account (MCA), sponsored by Washington.
On several occasions, the US diplomat has
publicly supported attempts by Nicaraguan
opposition parties, rating as fraudulent the
2008 municipal elections, when the
Sandinista National Liberation Front won the
majority of the country's mayoralties.
In addition, he made continuation of the MCA
conditional on the Nicaraguan government's
promotion of freedom of speech, respect for
human rights, and free clean elections. |
