To some, Nicaragua's president Daniel Ortega is a dictator.

He won a fourth straight term last November after jailing opposition candidates.

But his supporters say he's standing up to bullying from the West, especially the U.S.

Ortega was sworn in at a ceremony attended by allies including Russia, Venezuela and China.

So what's in store now for one of the poorest nations in Central America?

Presenter: Mohammed Jamjoom

Danny Shaw - Professor of Latin American and Caribbean Studies, CUNY

Jairo Lugo-Ocando - Director of Executive Edcuation and Graduate Studies, Northwestern University in Qatar
