Daniel Ortega shows the list of the 222 opponents released from prison and “deported” to Washington.

The process, which involved the government, the judiciary and the legislature, was simultaneous and carried out in a flash.

There was a judicial decision to release 222 Nicaraguan opponents from prison and “deport” them to the United States; a government agreement for Washington to receive them; and a reform in the National Assembly (Parliament) to strip them of their nationality.
