Report by Nicaragua

The main thrust of the efforts made by the Government of National Reconciliation and Unity (GRUN), as set out in the National Human Development Plan, is to maintain Nicaragua’s macroeconomic stability so that the country can continue to attract investment and maintain the increase in production and trade that will enable its economy to grow considerably in years to come. These efforts require a predictable, stable and ever more equitable multilateral trading system in which trade flows can increase in an environment that is free of unnecessary barriers, particularly non-tariff barriers, and the Nicaraguan people can attain greater well-being. Nicaragua is of the view that trade among nations is a key tool in sustainable development.
