if US media outlets are talking about him like this it's for one reason

if the US war machine or CIA topple machine gave a shit about Nicaragua, you'd see a shit ton more headlines. We've had mostly silence on the issue on the English speaking internet, compared to fake issues like Venezuela/Cuba/Iran/China.
