CIUDAD DE MÉXICO (AP) — Estados Unidos anunció el sábado la restricción de visas a 100 funcionarios del gobierno de Nicaragua que, según afirma, participaron en actos de represión y cierre de espacios cívicos, como la reciente clausura y confiscación de la jesuita Universidad Centroamericana (UCA).
El anuncio lo formuló el secretario de Estado, Antony Blinken, quien denunció “los incesantes ataques del régimen” del presidente Daniel Ortega y la vicepresidenta Rosario Murillo contra “las libertades civiles” en el país centroamericano.
Blinken aseguró que Washington seguirá trabajando con la comunidad internacional “para promover la rendición de cuentas de quienes amenazan la democracia en Nicaragua”, y en favor de “las libertades fundamentales del pueblo nicaragüense y el respeto de sus derechos humanos”. La Compañía de Jesús, a través de sus autoridades en Centroamérica, rechazó la imputación contra la UCA y le exigió al gobierno de Nicaragua que se le permita “su derecho a la defensa” a través de un juicio justo.
