Nicaragua President Daniel Ortega said the country will no longer hold elections, drawing sharp criticism from Washington and reinforcing a long-running family dictatorship. The development increases political risk and likely heightens scrutiny from the US, which could translate into policy and capital-flow uncertainty. Near-term market impact is likely meaningful given potential spillovers from US pressure.
