The Netherlands regrets Nicaragua's decision to sever diplomatic relations and will discuss further steps with the European Union, Dutch Foreign Minister Wopke Hoekstra said on Saturday, APA reports citing Sputnik.
"The Netherlands regrets the disproportionate decision by Nicaragua to break off diplomatic relations. We take a firm stand on the worsening democratic structures and human rights violations in Nicaragua. But a critical discussion is always better than ending relations," Hoekstra wrote on Twitter.
The Netherlands will also discuss its further steps with the European Union, according to Hoekstra.
The minister stated that other countries had also had "difficulties in maintaining an open dialogue" with Nicaragua.
