Nicaragua remains mired in a bit of a stalemate.
I think that I started three or four op-eds on Nicaragua this week but kept getting stumped. Ortega seems content to fight this latest battle out while the domestic opposition shows no signs of letting up. The international community has mustered a pretty strong consensus condemning events in the country (not including the Central American left), but it's not clear what more they can or will do. The United States is leveling additional sanctions against members of the regime engaged in perpetrating the violence, but it has little legitimacy or leverage in Nicaragua.
Nicaragua remains mired in a bit of a stalemate. In lieu of my thoughts, here are a few takes on the crisis in Nicaragua.
