Published on: Thursday 22 August 2024
Nicaragua’s government closed another 151 nongovernmental organizations Thursday, among them some of the most important trade organizations, including the American Chamber of Commerce, coming just days after the government shuttered some 1,500 nongovernmental organizations, many of them religious in nature. The Interior Ministry also cancelled the legal status of the umbrella organization for European countries’ chambers of commerce in Nicaragua. The U.S. chamber, known locally as AMCHAM, had been in existence in Nicaragua for 47 years.
