Carlos Trujillo: “The United States condemns the Nicaraguan Government's ongoing violence and intimidation campaign against its own…”

The United States will continue to stand with all Nicaraguans peacefully exercising their fundamental freedoms.

I believe that my past experiences have prepared me, if confirmed by the Senate, to serve more effectively as the United States Permanent Representative to the Organization of American States.

The OAS serves as a useful forum for generating attention on high-level cross-border and extra-continental migration issues which adversely impact the United States.

If confirmed, I pledge to do my utmost to ensure that the OAS lives up to its legacy as it confronts today's daunting challenges.
