Nicaragua ramps up suppression of exiles

2026-03-10 18:10:42

Nicaragua's government has been cracking down on exiles, affecting hundreds if not thousands of people, according to a fresh report by the UN Human Rights Council. This is happening at the same time as they're also ramping up their repression at home. The co-presidents, Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo, and other top officials, are responsible for human rights violations. These violations include crimes against humanity and are being committed against a broadening segment of the population. The government has formalized this repression through constitutional and legislative reforms, enabling generalized impunity. They've also been blocking any form of accountability and exposing victims and justice-seekers to severe reprisals.

Enjoy the little things in life. For one day, you may look back and realize they were the big things. Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.
