Speaking to “Poder Ciudadano” media outlets, Porras explained that the meeting involved the Special Constitutional Commission, representatives of the Supreme Electoral Council (CSE), and members of the government cabinet, acting under the direction of the Presidency of the Republic.

  The head of Parliament noted that during the meeting—held at the Foreign Ministry headquarters in the capital—it was explained that the reforms aim to guarantee the legal framework necessary to continue the fight against poverty and consolidate the country’s stability.

  He added that the constitutional changes would strengthen Nicaraguan democracy—which he defined as the “democracy of the People-President”—featuring an electoral model that serves the interests of the Nicaraguan people.

“The elections will belong to the Nicaraguan people, for the Nicaraguan people,” he affirmed.

  Porras stated that authorities conveyed to the diplomatic corps that Nicaragua would continue to conduct “clean and transparent” electoral processes, in keeping with the responsibilities of state institutions.

  The legislator highlighted that the exchange provided an opportunity to address concerns raised by diplomatic representatives and announced that further meetings would be held to provide updates on the progress of the reform process.

  According to Porras, the meeting was strictly informational in nature and helped clarify the objectives of the constitutional amendments currently being drafted by Nicaraguan authorities.
