Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) issued the following statement ahead of the sham elections in Nicaragua. Earlier this week, the House of Representatives passed the Reinforcing Nicaragua’s Adherence to Conditions for Electoral Reform (RENACER) Act, co-authored by Rubio.
“Tomorrow’s outcome in Nicaragua will not be a surprise,” Rubio said. “The corrupt Ortega-Murillo regime has done everything in its power to undermine, disrespect and disregard the democratic process in Nicaragua. Today, we honor and pay tribute to courageous leaders like Félix Maradiaga, Juan Sebastián Chamorro, Arturo Cruz, and Cristina Chamorro, who remain unjustly detained for seeking to run against dictator Daniel Ortega and his wife Rosario Murillo.
“As the Ortega-Murillo authoritarian dynasty aspires to perpetuate its grip on power, the United States and the international community must be adamant in their condemnation of tomorrow’s results. Democratic allies cannot turn a blind eye at multilateral bodies like the Organization of American States (OAS) and be accomplices in tomorrow’s sham.”
Rubio is the Ranking Member of the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on Western Hemisphere, Transnational Crime, Civilian Security, Democracy, Human Rights, and Global Women’s Issues.
RUBIO: EL RESULTADO DE MAÑANA EN NICARAGUA NO SERÁ UNA SORPRESA
Washington, D.C. — El senador estadounidense Marco Rubio (R-FL) emitió el siguiente comunicado previo a los comicios falsos en Nicaragua. Esta semana la Casa de Representantes aprobó el proyecto de ley RENACER de coautoría de Rubio.
“El resultado de mañana en Nicaragua no será una sorpresa”, dijo Rubio. “El corrupto régimen Ortega-Murillo ha hecho todo lo que está en su poder para socavar, faltar al respeto y desatender el proceso democrático en Nicaragua. Hoy, honramos y rendimos homenaje a líderes valientes como Félix Maradiaga, Juan Sebastián Chamorro, Arturo Cruz y Cristina Chamorro, quienes permanecen injustamente detenidos por intentar correr contra el dictador Daniel Ortega y su esposa Rosario Murillo.
“Mientras la dinastía autoritaria Ortega-Murillo aspira a perpetuar su control del poder, Estados Unidos y la comunidad internacional deben ser inflexibles en su condena de los resultados del mañana. Los aliados democráticos no pueden hacer la vista gorda ante organismos multilaterales como la Organización de Estados Americanos (OEA) y ser cómplices de la farsa de mañana “.
Rubio es el Miembro de Más Alto Rango del Subcomité sobre Hemisferio Occidental, Crimen Transnacional, Seguridad Civil, Democracia, DDHH y Asuntos Globales de la Mujer.
