A broad constitutional reform promoted by the Sandinista leader Daniel Ortega and his wife, Vice President Rosario Murillo, will probably increase the political persecution of the Catholic Church – as well as other Christian churches and denominations – in Nicaragua, according to analysts.
Among 200 articles, more than 140 will be changed, while 37 will be canceled. The Congress has already approved the new Constitution, but it has to vote for it again, something that will probably happen only in 2025.
