Descriptions

Vice President of Nicaragua, First Lady of Nicaragua and a leader of the Sandinista Youth. According to President Daniel Ortega, who presents her as the de facto “co-President” of the country, Rosario María Murillo Zambrana shares half of power with him. She played an instrumental role in encouraging and justifying the repression of opposition demonstrations by the Nicaraguan National Police in 2018. In Jun 2021, she publicly threatened the Nicaraguan opposition and discredited independent journalists. Those threats have been repeated since then. In Feb 2023, Daniel Ortega revealed that Rosario María Murillo Zambrana is the instigator of new repressions, namely related to the expulsion and deprivation of citizenship of 222 political prisoners. She is therefore responsible for serious human rights violations, for the repression of civil society and democratic opposition, and for undermining democracy in Nicaragua.

Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes,

Epouse du président Daniel Ortega - Vice-présidente du Nicaragua, première dame du Nicaragua et responsable des jeunesses sandinistes. Selon le président Daniel Ortega, qui la présente comme la “coprésidente” de fait du pays, Rosario María Murillo Zambrana partage le pouvoir avec lui pour moitié. Elle a joué un rôle déterminant en encourageant et en justifiant la répression par la police nationale nicaraguayenne en 2018 des manifestations de l’opposition. En juin 2021, elle a publiquement menacé l’opposition nicaraguayenne et discrédité les journalistes indépendants. Ces menaces ont été répétées depuis lors. En février 2023, Daniel Ortega a révélé que Rosario María Murillo Zambrana est l’instigatrice de nouvelles répressions, notamment liées à l’expulsion de 222 prisonniers politiques et à la déchéance de leur citoyenneté. Elle est donc responsable de graves violations des droits de l’homme, de la répression à l’égard de la société civile et de l’opposition démocratique ainsi que d’atteintes à la démocratie au Nicaragua.
