Today’s Nicaragua doesn’t offer even minimal conditions for holding credible elections. That’s the opinion expressed by Jennie Lincoln, the Carter Center’s senior advisor on Latin America and the Caribbean. She expressed this opinion during a May 21st virtual forum on “Nicaragua’s political landscape and prospects for democracy in 2021”.
The event was organized by the Seattle International Foundation and Florida International University. Speakers included Tiziano Breda, Central America Analyst for the International Crisis Group, and independent journalist Carlos Fernando Chamorro. Chamorro directs the Confidencial news site, and the internet television news programs Esta Semana and Esta Noche.
