Nicaragua, 47 years of the triumph of the Sandinista Revolution. “Power to the People!”
Forty-seven years on from the triumph of the Sandinista Revolution, the international media campaign is attempting to portray the defense of sovereignty as the ‘end of democracy’. From Sandino to the People-As-President. As we approach the twentieth anniversary of the second phase of the Revolution, Nicaragua is championing a model of democracy based on national sovereignty, popular participation and the collective pursuit of development.
