More Violence in Nicaragua. Bishops Pull Out of Peace Talks with Ortega
The pressure on President Daniel Ortega to resign is increasing as Catholic Bishops pulled out of peace talks after the police opened fire on protesters in the capital of Managua. Tens of thousands took to the streets Wednesday to protest against Ortega's government in what they called the Mother's Day March because it was led by the mothers of those that had been killed in earlier protests. 11 people were killed and 79 wounded.
The latest eruption of violence came just days after Amnesty International released a report accusing Nicaragua’s government of unleashing a deliberate campaign of deadly repression designed to snuff out the revolt.
