Can the Vatican stop Nicaragua’s Catholic crackdown?

This podcast episode discusses the persecution of the Catholic Church in Nicaragua by President Daniel Ortega and Vice President Rosario Murillo, leaving the country without its pastors and religious leaders. The Vatican has responded to the mass expulsion of dissidents and Nicaragua's suspension of diplomatic relations with the Holy See. The international community has largely ignored the crisis and the United States has shifted its focus from democracy and human rights to concerns about drug trafficking.
