Calls grow for cessation of hostility against Nicaragua

A slanderous campaign which has sought to discredit the Government of Nicaragua and Sandinista Revolution has sparked a backlash.

Organizations in the United States, Canada and the UK are among a growing list of signers of a statement which denounces the escalation of aggression against Nicaragua through hostile policies, particularly illegal sanctions, which have been coupled with a strong media disinformation campaign.

The statement elaborated by the Nicaragua Solidarity Coalition rejects the US designation of Nicaragua as “an unusual and extraordinary threat” to the United States and calls for the lifting of economic sanctions. The statement has already received the backing of groups including Popular Resistance, Code Pink, Alliance for Global Justice, Black Alliance for Peace, and Fire This Time, among dozens of other organizations.

The statement can be read and signed here.
