TRUMP RENEWS DESIGNATION OF NICARAGUA AS AN 'EXTRAORDINARY THREAT'
-On November 3, President Trump signed an executive order declaring a “national emergency.” The “emergency” is due to “the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States constituted by the situation in Nicaragua.” Supposedly, this emergency began in November 2018, has persisted for eight years and is expected to continue into 2027.
-The scale of the “threat”
-Here are some key figures by which to judge the scale of the “threat” posed by Nicaragua. First, some basics. The US population is nearly 50 times Nicaragua’s, and its economy is 1,400 times bigger, with Nicaragua’s national income (GDP) only 0.07% that of the US.
-Second, a military comparison. Nicaragua has one of the smallest defense budgets in the Americas, devoting just 0.6% of its GDP ($116 million) to its military.
