Ortega: The People Rule Nicaragua
Managua, Dec 1 (Prensa Latina) President Daniel Ortega officially
installed the so-called People's Power Councils (CPC) as the highest
authority in Nicaragua, asserting that his Government will abide by
what these popular organizations decide.
"Full sovereignty relies on the people, not in the President,
ministers, deputies, mayors or councilpersons, because it is the people
who have the final say on the system they want," said Ortega, who led
the mass gathering marking the installation of the national CPC Cabinet
at the Revolution Square on Saturday, when he also received credentials
of ambassadors of France, Colombia, Guinea, Canada and South Africa.
In his closing speech, Ortega stressed that the "councils" are not
partisan institutions, as claimed by opponents of the governing
Sandinista National Liberation Front.
The doors of the CPC are open to all citizens, said Ortega, who added
that these organizations are a point for all Nicaraguans to meet and
exercise true direct democracy.
