联合国人权专家组：尼加拉瓜已成「全面独裁」，有合理理由相信其领导人犯下危害人类罪
联合国人权理事会任命的尼加拉瓜人权专家组10月28日在纽约联合国总部举行记者会表示，尼加拉瓜共同总统 Daniel Ortega 与 Rosario Murillo 夫妇已建立独裁统治，并有「合理理由相信已犯下危害人类罪」。专家组此前一天向联合国大会第三委员会提交了最新调查结果。
专家组主席 Jan-Michael Simon 说：「我们面对的不是一般的人权局势或危机。这是一个全面独裁，而这个独裁只有一个明确目标：永久的王朝统治。」他表示，任意拘押、强迫失踪、政治迫害与剥夺国籍都不是目的本身，而是清除一切障碍、让权力永久留在 Ortega-Murillo 一家的工具。他还说，Ortega 四个月前曾公开宣称尼加拉瓜永远不会再举行选举。专家组成员 Reed Brody 介绍了跨国监视与恐吓、流亡尼加拉瓜人处境等调查发现。
专家组自2018年4月尼加拉瓜抗议遭镇压以来调查该国侵犯人权指控，尼加拉瓜政府否认相关指控。专家组呼吁会员国不要让这一局势被正常化，并敦促各国声援直接承受该政权人权后果的尼加拉瓜邻国。
UN Experts: Nicaragua's Leaders Run a 'Full Dictatorship', With Reasonable Grounds to Believe Crimes Against Humanity Were Committed
The Group of Human Rights Experts on Nicaragua, appointed by the UN Human Rights Council, told reporters at UN Headquarters in New York on October 28 that Nicaragua's co-presidents, Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo, have established a dictatorship and that there are 'reasonable grounds to believe that crimes against humanity have been committed.' The group presented its latest findings to the UN General Assembly's Third Committee.
'What we are looking at is a full dictatorship, and that dictatorship has one clear goal: permanent dynastic rule,' said Jan-Michael Simon, the group's chair. 'Arbitrary detention, enforced disappearances, political persecution, the stripping of nationality. These are not goals in themselves. They are tools, tools designed to remove every obstacle, real or imagined, so that power stays permanently in the hands of one family: Ortega-Murillo.' Simon added that four months ago Ortega said publicly that Nicaragua will never hold elections again. Fellow member Reed Brody discussed the group's findings on transnational surveillance and intimidation and the situation of Nicaraguans in exile.
The group has investigated allegations of human rights violations in Nicaragua since the April 2018 protest crackdown, which the government denies. The experts called on member states not to allow the situation to become normalized and urged states to stand with Nicaragua's neighbouring countries, which are directly confronting the human rights consequences of the regime.
