Ortega Says Capitalism
In Its Death Throes
MANAGUA - Nicaraguan
President Daniel Ortega
stated that the
capitalism is in its
death throes and the
Bolivarian Alternative
for the Peoples of Our
America (ALBA) is the
most advanced, Christian
and fairest project.
At the closing ceremony
Thursday night of the
Fourth Meeting of the
Nicaraguan Cooperative
Movement, held on the
occasion of the 15th
anniversary of the
National Agricultural
Bank (Caruna), Ortega
said that what is on the
horizon for the current
crisis is a great
failure of the
capitalist economy.
"The unsustainable
capitalist model is
sinking," he said, "that
country has stopped
being a temptation and
the alternative is
building with the ALBA."
In his reflections on
the current economic
crisis of capitalism,
the head of the
government stressed that
the US people are
victims of the monster
this kind of system has
created.
At present, nearly 17
cooperative programs are
working with funds the
ALBA has facilitated,
and among them about
67,000 small producers
have been benefited and,
in general, almost
100,000 users have
received credits. |
