El Salvador: No Country for Human Rights
Description
CENTRAL AMERICA IN MINUTES, Ep. 37: Cristosal, a leading human rights organization in Central America, announces that it is closing operations in El Salvador under threat of political arrest and administrative harassment under a “Russia-style” Foreign Agents Law that dealt a frontal blow to civil society.
In Nicaragua, three days before the anniversary of the Sandinista Revolution, the regime renames the archive illegally confiscated from Central American University. Meanwhile, Ortega and Murillo completely restructure the national university system to flex their total control over higher education.
