Guyana on June 15 voted with 25 other members of the Organisation of American States (OAS) to condemn the arrest of members of the political opposition and independent media in Nicaragua and to urge the current Nicaraguan government to implement necessary electoral reform measures to ensure the scheduled November 2021 elections are free and fair.
The resolution was passed in keeping with previous statements, resolutions and mandates, adopted by the OAS since 2018, in support of the restoration of democratic institutions and respect for human rights in Nicaragua.
