CARACAS, Nov. 16 (Xinhua) - Countries of the Bolivarian Alternative for the Americas (Alba) rejected U.S. intervention in the Nicaraguan elections, according to a communique published Sunday in Venezuela.
"We strongly reject the U.S. intervention in the internal issues of Nicaragua and we reaffirm that past elections are of exclusive competence of the Nicaraguan People and their institutions," Alba said in the communique published by the Venezuelan Foreign Ministry.
After an unprecedented victory by the Nicaraguan ruling party during the Nov. 9 elections, the Nicaraguan government confronted the U.S. interference policy, which tried to discredit the administration of Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega and his institutions.
