The Dominican Republic will withdraw its embassy from Nicaragua due to restrictions on freedoms and democracy.

The Government of the Dominican Republic has announced the closure of its embassy in Nicaragua. The decision was communicated on a Friday by the country's foreign minister, Víctor 'Ito' Bisonó.

According to the official announcement, the diplomatic mission will remain closed as long as conditions affecting democratic principles and the exercise of freedoms persist in the Central American nation. The government specifically cited the ongoing absence of freedoms and the growing concentration of power under the leadership of Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo.
