The OAS sets a deadline: Is this the regime’s last opportunity?
The Organization of American States General Assembly
has issued a resolution regarding Nicaragua’s regime
that sounds very much like an ultimatum, a last chance:

Before and during the pandemic in Central America:... and after?
The coronavirus has disproportionately hit
Central America’s peoples and communities,
which lack safe water, sanitation and health services,
and any short-term prospect of economic reactivation.
And what about the more long-term future of this region?
