  • The Chancellery has opened a disciplinary investigation into Muñoz Giraldo regarding events on December 11 at the consular office in Managua.
  • UNIDIPLO disputes the Chancellery's use of "provisionality in the diplomatic career," stating it has no legal basis and does not confer career status.
