First modification:
The Daniel Ortega regime exiled 222 Nicaraguan opponents that it had arrested. He sent them on a plane to Washington and stripped them of their nationality. These are opponents, former candidates, religious, all kinds of people whose only crime was raising their voices against the violations of freedoms and the accumulation of power by Ortega.
The Joe Biden administration granted them a humanitarian visa and considered this banishment – a violation of human rights – a positive sign.
“We believe that all political prisoners should be released. Now, if this is a sign that (Ortega) is ready to start changing his human rights policy or not, it remains to be seen, but the fact that they were released. .. we are happy to receive them and I am happy that they are free,” said Joe Biden in an interview with the Telemundo network.
And while the United States sees it as a positive sign, the right to a nationality is a fundamental right. Organizations defending human rights as well as the Organization of American States, the OAS, criticized this banishment measure, which dates back to the Middle Ages.
