Daniel Ortega raises suspicion of FARC connections

05/29/08 10:55

The United States and Colombia are becoming more suspicious of Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega after he eulogized Manuel Marulanda, deceased founder and leader of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC).

During the eulogy, Ortega called the leader "our brother" yet again after previously calling him his "dear brother". Because of this, suspicions arise about the President's connections with the FARC.

More details are here in the Tico Times.
