The future foreign minister, Ernesto Araújo, informed Sunday (23) on Twitter that Brazil would not receive representatives of Nicaragua held by Jair Bolsonaro as President of the Republic. The inauguration is scheduled for January 1 in Brasilia.
Nicaragua is facing the greatest political crisis in the country since the Sandinista revolution of 1979.
The government of Daniel Ortega is facing a wave of protests and national strikes. Hundreds of people have already been killed and conflicts have taken place on the streets of the country. . In addition, anti-government television channels were closed by the local police.
"The inauguration of PR Bolsonaro will mark the beginning of a government having a firm and clear stance in favor of the defense of freedom .To this end, and against the violations of the Ortega regime against freedom of the Nicaraguan people, no representative of this regime will be received at the event of the 1st day ", published Araújo on Twitter ( see in the image above ).
G1 asked the press service of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs – to see if a representative of the Ortega government had already been invited – and had waited for the last update of this report.
Last week, the Foreign Ministry announced that the government had even invited Cuban and Venezuelan leaders to take possession of Bolsonaro, but that it had then failed at the request of the elected president.
Although Bolsonaro promised during the campaign that he would form a government "without ideological bias", he adopted a position contrary to that of countries like Cuba, Venezuela and China for having considered that these countries had the same ideology as the PT.
According to Itamaraty, the Bolsonaro team recommended to invite all heads of state and government of countries with which Brazil maintains diplomatic relations.
But, according to the ministry, the decision on Cuba and Venezuela was taken at a second time, also on the recommendation of the elected government.
