Nicaragua to Receive Open Signal Telesur
Telesur, the TV station of the South, will begin
open signal broadcasting in Nicaragua by the end
of the year, Sergio Rodriguez, Telesur
international affairs consultant announced on
Monday.
Rodriguez said they are presently analyzing
whether Nicaraguan Channel 4 will carry Telesur
broadcasts, but did not rule out rescuing
Channel 6, a state TV channel abandoned by
previous governments.
When the decision is made, probably by next
month, they will work on selection and training
of local staff and installation of equipment,
Rodriguez said.
Telesur is occasionally broadcast through cable
satellite signal in Nicaragua.
Telesur, a joint network project of Venezuela,
Cuba, Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and recently,
Bolivia, was created to boost the process of
integration of communication among the Latin
American countries and providing truthful
information of the Latin American region to the
rest of the world.
Nicaragua is a minority shareholder of Telesur
since March 11, when Presidents Daniel Ortega
and Hugo Chavez signed the corresponding
document.
