Managua, October 12 (RHC=-- The Government of Nicaragua has accused the U.S. Ambassador to Managua, Kevin Sullivan, of meddling in the internal affairs of the Central American country.

The Nicaraguan Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a note on Monday demanding that Ambassador Sullivan "cease his covert attacks, his hypocritical greetings, disguised as a diplomatic courtesy that he abandoned long ago, and that rather has been, and is, an example of the continuous, perverse and detestable invasive interference of the United States in Nicaragua."

According to the Foreign Ministry of Managua, the U.S. diplomat continually expresses himself, directly and indirectly, to the detriment of institutional decisions and independent national policies of the Central American country which "is nobody's colony."

"Our sovereignty, which is not disputed, nor surrendered to the fierce barbarians, cannot continue to be violated or violated by the same invaders and interveners as always," the text states. 

Nicaragua calls on the West led by the U.S. not to intervene in its internal affairs and to put an end to sanctions, as they are a crime against humanity.   Nicaragua also calls on the U.S. ambassador to behave in a "respectful and responsible" manner, in the context of the Vienna Convention, according to which, in diplomatic relations, all States must respect and recognize the sovereignty and self-determination of the countries concerned.

The note adds to the many denunciations from Nicaragua in which it assures that Washington and its partners, such as the European Union, try to meddle in the internal affairs of the country and sanction its authorities and people in an attempt to put an end to the government of Daniel Ortega for defending the sovereignty of the country and for being openly anti-imperialist.

Pressure from Western countries, with the U.S. at the forefront, and smear campaigns against the Sandinista leader have increased since he ran for reelection in the upcoming November 7 elections.
