Ortega's Declaration: Nicaragua Abolishes Elections Amid Power Struggle

Nicaragua's parliament has announced plans to eliminate elections, following President Daniel Ortega's declaration that there will be no more elections in the country, effectively codifying his authoritarian rule and suppressing democratic processes. The move is seen as a significant escalation of Ortega's authoritarian grip on power. The decision has been widely condemned by opposition leaders and international observers who see it as an attempt to consolidate his control. The future of democracy in Nicaragua now hangs in the balance.
