Desde abril Nicaragua, una vez el país más seguro de Centroamérica, ha explotado en protesta, con cientos de muertos y miles de heridos. Con tanto caos, es probable que siga la violencia criminal.

Nicaragua has exploded in violence since mass protests began against President Daniel Ortega in April, with hundreds dead and thousands wounded. Amid such chaos, criminal violence is likely to follow.
Corruption, not gang warfare, is the root cause of the record violence in El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala. Until public officials stop shielding criminal groups like MS-13, lawlessness will reign.
Trump’s plans to crack down on immigration could create the same conditions that led to MS-13’s birth and expansion.
