I do have disagreements with Ortega, for example he abandoned marxism from the party's official dialectics and started his democratic socialist thing. Which led to current problems that could have been easily avoided if he kept a revolutionary marxist model followed by democratic centralism.

Though now he is probably realizing once more the US will do everything to overthrow any single popular and autonomous government in Latin America. So he might be coming back to some of the ideological principles of the Sandinist revolution.

Anyway, he is still the popular leadership, supported by the workers and the trade unions. He was there struggling to liberate his people from neo imperialism and has been doing his part on Latin American integration as an alternative to the vassalage toward the US. This guaranteed to Nicaragua a strong economic growth and relatively low levels of crime compared to neighbouring countries.

He has recently being victim of US sponsored sanctions and colored revolutions as well. Either he strongly defends what the people struggled for, or Nicaragua will face the same fate of Honduras: major crisis, president overthrown by US coup and caravans of people leaving it.
