"Mr President, there is an alarming trend in today’s Latin America to consolidate populist regimes by extending the mandate of current presidents – preferably for eternity. This was Hitler’s way to power. Lenin’s was that of indifference, but the results were just the same.
These presidents with extended powers have not been able or willing to improve the quality of life of their subjects. Cuba is a murky and painful example of how lives of normal people have been mutilated and spoiled for decades. In Nicaragua, we can see a warning example that such kinds of rulers do not change. They return to power only to misuse it once again.
It is, therefore, our task now to condemn strongly these violations of the Nicaraguan Constitution and to link this issue with much more efficient control over the use of funds given to Nicaragua for development. It is very disappointing that the Organisation of American States has not reacted to these flagrant violations of the constitution by one of its member states."@en1
