By emphatically repudiating these events that represent more violence and pain for so many Families, we also express our condolences and solidarity with you and your people, the Nicaraguan Executive highlighted in a letter sent to the Russian President, Vladimir Putin.
The text added that Nicaragua is sure that the Russian people and government fight accurate battles and build victories against the most serious threats that loom against the world and the human community.
“We greet you with confidence and hope in the force of peace,” underlined the message signed by President Daniel Ortega and Vice President Rosario Murillo.
