today that opposition force is largely in jail.ders are in jail with no due process, with no serious charges, with a justice system completely controlled by the repressive regime. there needs to be a regrouping of some sort of opposition force internally. the role that external actors can play is limited, but it can be helpful to that end. i think more can be done with the organization of american states. i think there could be more pressure internally. one other thing that i think is important, you mentioned honduras. honduras will have a new government. that government i think will be less supportive of ortega than the previous government. that may affect nicaraguan's ability to get funds and financing from the central american bank with the change in government of honduras. there are pressures from financial institutions and diplomatically that can make a difference, but it is extremely difficult. host: i saw you nodding when michael was talking about their needs to be some regrouping when it comes to the opposition in nicaragua
