Critics claim that Ortega&#8217;s administration has consolidated power through constitutional changes and suppressed opposition voices.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the escalating conflict that began on February 28 with U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran, Ortega had previously taken a more cautious stance regarding Trump. However, he did not hold back during a recent event in Managua, which was broadcast by state media. \u201cThe way the current U.S. president is conducting this war shows signs of someone who has lost touch with reality and is capable of extreme cruelty,\u201d Ortega stated. \u201cIt points to a kind of mental instability.
