From 2002 to 2006, he was Secretary General of the Ministry of Defense under President Enrique Bolaños.[1] Maradiaga is the founding co-director of the Civil Society Leadership Institute.[2] He has been one of the top recipients of US aid to change the government of Nicaragua.
Background
Maradiaga grew up and was educated in the United States.
Activities
Maradiaga has long been cultivated by the US government with the goal of destabilizing the Sandinista government.[3]
Although his support base in his homeland is tiny, and he is despised by Sandinista supporters who hold him responsible for destabilizing the country over three years ago, Maradiaga has remained a top US government asset.[3]
Incubated in the bowels of elite corporate-funded neoliberal institutions like the World Economic Forum, Maradiaga has led a series of NGOs and think tanks, such as the Institute for Strategic Studies and Public Policy (IEEPP), which use plentiful funding from CIA cutouts to like the US Agency for International Development, the International Republican Institute, and the National Endowment for Democracy to wage hybrid warfare against the Nicaraguan government.[3]
Connections
Felix Maradiaga was selected for the 2008 World Fellows Program. He is married to Berta Valle. Both of them were selected by the World Economic Forum to by part of the Young Global Leaders program in 2009.
