¿Ya pasó todo? Nicaragua 45 años más tarde…

La Nicaragua de julio de 2024 es muy diferente a lo que comúnmente se ha visto y vivido en los últimos diez años. Es el lugar en que ha desembocado un estado policial, corrupto, oportunista y mentiroso. A 45 años no se celebra un triunfo, se revive un Déjà vu.

Feeling the Stones: Chinese Development Finance to Latin America and the Caribbean, 2023

In 2023, China’s development finance institution (DFI) issued two loans totaling $1.3 billion to Brazil. Chinese DFI lending in 2023 was slightly higher than the $863 million issued by CDB and Ex-Im Bank in 2022. Despite this slight increase, China’s sovereign lending remains modest.
