Economist Javier GorrostiagaJesuit, which directs valid study centersCentral America to Managuahas passed Rome just days before the presidency of the Sandinista government, Daniel Ortegaproclaimed a “special state of emergency” – an extraordinary series of anti-civil rights decrees that shocked all friends of the Sandinista revolution a week ago. Two years ago, the center’s spokesperson magazine had predicted, for Nicaraguathree possible models of evolution: back to Somozismthe triumph of “Stalinism” (this term is not the one used by the Jesuits, but it summarizes the meaning) or the definitive prevalence of pure, pluralist, non-aligned Sandinism. Passed through Rome recently, Gorrostiaga confirming the impression that the Sandinista line was superior.
His belief is supported by the fact that it underwent recent internal renovations Sandinista fronta new directorate of five members had emerged, the majority of whom were people who had always represented, within the movement, the so-called “tercerista” wing, the most libertarian, and often associated with European social democracy. About the true intentions of Washington in politics towards Nicaragua Garrostiaga However, he has his own opinion: “The North American government has done everything to ensure that Nicaragua will be the new one Cubawith the aim of preventing it from becoming a new one Nicaragua” he recently told Buenos Aires’ “Periodista.”

American linguists also say the same thing Noam Chomsky: “The idea is that if we cannot destroy that government through invasion or internal subversion, we should try to force that government to side with Russia, because then we have a reason to attack it.”
ReaganSecond Chomskyhe wasn’t particularly worried about a Soviet or Cuban presence in it Nicaraguaas well as the fact that the rulers Managua “they threaten to create independent national, social and economic development, outside the framework of US control.” Also a great Peruvian writer Vargas Llosadisliked by Cuba for his criticism of Castroand also an American historian Gabriel Jacksonan unexpected critical thought from the hasty and old-fashioned leftists around the world, has been published in recent months (see “El Paìs” by Madridand “Europeans” in Italy) an optimistic analysis of a country where the revolution had occurred “without bloody purges or attacks on religion” as other totalitarian regimes have done and where “the spectrum of political parties and political criticism is as broad as in most Western democracies” (Jackson); so that we can also glimpse the possibility of a revision and correction of Marxism, which supports the growth of democratic freedom (Vargas Llosa). All those naive, deluded, useful idiots? Last Tuesday’s blow seemed designed to prove this to be true: in such a regime, common sense now dictates, the simple mentality of those who are friendlier to their enemies than to revolution always ends at some point.
More friends than Reagan than themselves. But even in the face of factual evidence (the decrees eradicated strikes and assemblies, imposed censorship on the press and private correspondence, prohibited the free movement of citizens within the country, permitted searches and arrests without warrants), and precisely because of the overwhelming evidence of these deplorable acts, there remains doubt in the minds of those who have tried their best for decades to try to understand with open-mindedness and without prejudice to civil superiority, the psychological course of Latin American revolutionaries. Some doubts regarding the true nature of the sensational Sandinista sinking. In Thursday’s “Paìs” we read an attempt to explain Jesus Ceberioattentive reporter, who has spent a long time close to managers Managua. Ceberius acknowledged that “the regime’s precarious external image has taken a hit as the speech revealed Daniel Ortega he could not mitigate it, for he gave no other reason than that which he himself had always given, since the day of his coronation, without ever resorting to such drastic recourse.”
Nicaragua, Ortega’s ambassador broke the silence and denounced: “There is a dictatorship in my country. It is impossible to maintain it”

On the other hand, war Washington oppose Managua did not note any change in the balance of power. Deputy Minister of Defense Joaquin Cuadra he had just finished declaring that the opposing guerrillas, the so-called “contras,” were now “strategically defeated.” And cooperation between right and extreme left groups, which you alluded to Orteganothing new for Nicaragua. Therefore according to “El Paìs” only a serious conflict within the Sandinista Front could explain “the state of emergency in which any state of siege against the sad memory of Somozis is meaningless”. Ortega he had to bend before the tougher wings Foreheadwho for months criticized his policy of concessions to promote a formula for coexistence with the United States. Enough with the concessions, the hawks say; and the dove will fold its wings. That could be the explanation. But not enough.
Ortegawith his brother Humberto head Armed Forceshad a majority in the new Front Directorate. And when announcing the blow, Ortega is by his side Sergio Ramírezthe most “Western” of the Sandinista leaders, a fine writer and prominent intellectual; who then immediately stated that the work of the Constituent Assembly would continue as before: and all the observers had written that in the parliamentary assembly ManaguaThe new constitution was drafted in open democratic debate free from oppression (as Christian Democracy International defined last year’s elections as completely free). So how do we explain the madness of emergencies? This will probably explain itself over time and depending on how it is implemented. For now we know that Fly he had warned Managua That Washington he was preparing a plan of attack on all fronts, internal and external. That a disease of suspected dangerous origin is destroying the population. That Daniel Ortegayesterday, in courtUN he said, the suspension of civil rights would soon be lifted Reagan will show that they want to stop the war against Nicaragua. This is another piece of this “puzzle”, to which must be added his incompetenceEurope democracy to seriously support Sandinismo’s more democratic tendencies. So we continue to follow cases that cannot be handled with simple adjectives.
