The United States will impose visa restrictions on more than 250 officials of the Nicaraguan government of President Daniel Ortega, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Friday, citing human rights abuses, APA reports citing Reuters.
"With this new set of restrictions, the U.S. government has now taken steps to impose visa restrictions on over 2,000 officials in Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo's regime, which has deprived the Nicaraguan people of their fundamental freedoms and forced so many into exile," Rubio said in a statement.
"The United States will not stand for Ortega and Murillo’s continued assault on Nicaragua."
