Daniel Ortega solidifies power and asserts that there will be "no more elections" in Nicaragua

"Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega has caused international shock by formally announcing
that competitive electoral processes will no longer be held in the country.
During the commemoration of the
Sandinista victory at the Plaza de la Fe in the capital, Ortega was emphatic in declaring to a crowd of supporters and military personnel: "I want you to forget, here there will be no more elections for them [opponents] to try to seize the Government and power". These words, spoken by an 81-year-old president with a weakened voice, have been interpreted by analysts as the political testament of a regime seeking to perpetuate itself without democratic facades." msn
