Comments by Dr. Gustavo Porras
President of the National Assembly,
after the Explanation of the Proposal of Constitutional Reforms
to the Political Constitution to Representatives of the Financial and Banking Sector
July 29th 2026
We would like to inform you that, in this Consultation Process, we have now had the second very important Consultation activity with the country’s financial and banking sectors, where the Concepts of the Reform were presented, and we are clear that we are, as we said, complying with guidance received from Comandante, our President, and the Co-President, Compañera Rosario, together with the encouragement and desire of all of us as Sandinistas, that in this country we are on the path of combating Poverty.
We told the financial and banking sectors that we are all interested, and they too, quite rightly, in Stability, Security and Peace in our country.
It is enough to look back over the last five years at the entire behavior of the economy, the behavior of bank deposits and the behavior of all financial activity, to realize how important Stability, Security and Peace are for the country’s development, and that these Reforms and this Stability, Security and Peace are of interest to these important sectors in the country's economy, as they are to all other sectors. Workers, producers, all sectors have to be go in that direction, the direction our Leaders have told us to take, which is to combat Poverty.
I understand that there was complete clarity, we greeted each other in very friendly way, and we are going to continue along this path. The meeting was very good.
Journalists
Thank you, Doctor.
