Gobierno de Reconciliación y Unidad Nacional
Unida Nicaragua Triunfa
NICARAGUA SPEECH
The Government of Reconciliation and National Unity represents within this Council, the Noble, Brave and Hardworking People of Nicaragua, with their heads held high and the Pride of being Protagonists of a History of Struggle for our National Sovereignty, our Independence, and even more so, in the Year of the Bicentennial.
We have the right to live in peace. We have the right to respect. We have the right to Peace, which we have been building so hard after centuries of aggression, meddling and intervention by the United States of America and the complicit European Powers, which have sought to maintain imperialist and colonial domination over our Free, Sovereign and Blessed Nicaragua.
We stand before this Council to ratify the Vigor, Glory and Historical Truths of the Nicaraguan People, who are emancipated and have risen with a Soul of Victories, in the face of the same aggressors. We have the Honor of defending our Motherland, defending the Interests and the Rights of a People that advance, in its own Values and Cultures, a People that have been recognized throughout the years, as an inspiration and an example of Peoples in Struggle.
In recent days we have courageously lived and confronted the same interventionist practices that we have come to know and defeat, from William Walker, American filibuster, white supremacist and enslaver, self-proclaimed President of Nicaragua and even after that; even in the midst of wars, interventions and military occupations of the United States that murdered our Patriot Generals, Fathers of our National Dignity, Benjamin Zeledón and Augusto Sandino, or when the successive and warlike American presidents have declared themselves "contras", with great hypocrisy and in the crudest of shamelessness...
Nicaragua has faced the indecent greed of the United States and Europe, which has used all the vices of its own decadence to try to dismantle and dissuade National Honor, and the Spirit of Sandinismo. The fact is that the immoral and obvious imperial, colonial American and European greed, the neocolonial greed with its alleged manifest destinies, has always failed, buy has always pursued, our strategic and privileged geographical position.
We have confronted them with Bravery, Dignity, Humility, Good Faith and with the Valuable Experience of Dialogue and Peaceful Coexistence, with a Culture of Reconciliation and Concord, which despite so many warlike perversions, is maintained, and increased, between the Nicaraguan People and the State.
Madam President,
Sister and Brother Delegates:
We stand before this Council to defend Justice and Peace. The Right of Nicaragua to Live in Justice and Peace. The Right to Live Without Foreign Interference. The Right to Live our Destiny of Heroic People, that will never submit to the impositions of the Imperial Powers.
We come to this Council to say Enough. Enough with the reproducing of the interventionist discourse of those who intend to dictate our Laws and Decisions, our Ways and Models of Life, in Organizations that supposedly should serve for the defense of Human Rights, nullifying our Sovereignty, pretending to impose attitudes that are alien to our Culture and Idiosyncrasy, in that arrogant, self-righteous and inappropriate desire to dominate a Country and a People, which owe their suffering and pain to Imperialism and Colonialisms, in all of its forms.
Madam President,
Sisters and Brother Delegates:
We come to this Council to denounce the United States, as well as the European Powers that are its accomplices, and to denounce its immoral and indecent Policy of aggressive, arbitrary, illegal, coercive and unilateral measures that violate all the Instruments of International Law.
We come to denounce, and will continue to denounce, Colonial Europe, and the United States, "Invader of Our America"... as the Immortal and Universal Nicaraguan Rubén Darío called them... and so we denounce them here today, as invaders, conquerors and assailants of the Law, of the Heritages and of the Sovereignty of the Peoples.
We come to this Council to demand justice for Nicaragua. Justice for Nicaraguan Families. Justice for a People of Faith, of Values, of Ideals that never surrender, of Communities that, as our General Sandino said, we neither sell, nor surrender, never.
In Nicaragua, Blessed, Sovereign and Always Free, there are Laws. And those Laws are respected. They are laws similar or equal to that of any country in the world. But they, the Imperialists, they have them and apply them, while they do not recognize our Right to apply our similar Laws, of Defense of Loyalty to the Motherland.
They denounce us, because the people who are answering before Nicaraguan Justice, are their sad and failed employees, unfortunately the Traitors of always, who have committed crimes against sovereignty, independence, security and peace in our Nicaragua.
Anything else that is said in this Council is part of the same strategy of defamation, of denigrating messaging, and of pretensions to humiliate and subjugate a country and a people that owes nothing, and fears nothing.
We have come to denounce, repeatedly, that American and European imperialists and their interfering policies and actions, violate international law and the Charter of the United Nations.
Know, Brothers and Sisters of the World, that in Nicaragua there is a Laborious, Dignified, Loving, Supportive, Fraternal People, that identifies with the best Causes, the Causes of Justice, True Life, Freedom and the Rights to Work, Security and Peace, Health, Education, Prosperity... Those are our Purposes, and those are the realizations of our Nicaragua.
We advance in spite of the Imperialists of the Earth, in all their criminal complicities, because we are worthy and hardworking, and because we are nobody's Colony! And we are moving forward with Joy towards the fulfillment of the Goals set by the United Nations, for the Good, Just, Harmonious, Sustainable Life, and with the Right to Development for All!!
