Nicaragua on the map of sanctioned countries

Rosario Murillo expressed gratitude that Nicaragua was included on a geopolitical map of some thirty sanctioned countries that Venezuela presented, as a way of denouncing the impositions of the United States and other powerful nations.

She added that Foreign Minister Denis Moncada will represent the Sandinista regime during the 78th session of the United Nations General Assembly.

“[Nicaragua] is also participating in a special event to launch the geopolitical map of the aggression of imperialism and the empires against the countries, governments, honorable people who refuse, won’t accept, being subordinated, because we don’t accept being subordinates of any empire,” Murillo emphasized.
