A Legacy of Resistance and Social Justice
Nicaraguan politician Gladys Báez, an emblematic and loyal figure of the Sandinista National Liberation Front (FSLN), has passed away, leaving an indelible mark on the nation’s history. Since the FSLN came to power in 2007 under the presidency of Daniel Ortega, Báez stood out as a fervent defender of the Sandinista government’s policies.
The ALBA-TCP (Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America – Peoples’ Trade Treaty) paid tribute to the Sandinista deputy, who has now begun her journey to immortality. During an emotional homage, President Ortega praised her bravery as a “guerrilla fighter in the heroic feat of Pancasán,” highlighting her unwavering dedication to the Sandinista cause.
Gladys Báez’s legacy is etched into the historical heritage of resistance and rebellion in Our America. Her commitment to social justice and her loyalty to Sandinismo serve as enduring examples for future generations.
As a deputy in Nicaragua’s National Assembly, Báez actively promoted policies that strengthened the FSLN’s governance, including the approval of laws that, though controversial, reflected her support for the government’s initiatives.
Throughout her political career, Báez faced criticism from neoliberal sectors due to her steadfast backing of the FSLN’s legislative proposals. However, her total dedication to the Sandinista cause has left a profound impact on Nicaragua’s political history.
The passing of Gladys Báez marks not only the loss of a distinguished leader but also the closing of a significant chapter in the fight for social justice in Nicaragua and across the region. Her memory will endure as a symbol of loyalty and commitment to building a fairer future for all.
