El viernes, el presidente Donald Trump hizo algo que los cristianos de todo el mundo le hab\u00edan estado pidiendo desde que asumi\u00f3 el cargo.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

En un mensaje en las redes sociales, Trump reconoci\u00f3 las atrocidades que los cristianos en Nigeria enfrentan a diario, diciendo que \u201clos islamistas radicales son responsables de esta masacre masiva. Por la presente, declaro a Nigeria como un \u201cPA\u00cdS DE ESPECIAL PREOCUPACI\u00d3N\u201d.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

La designaci\u00f3n de Pa\u00eds de Especial Preocupaci\u00f3n (CPC, por sus siglas en ingl\u00e9s) podr\u00eda mejorar significativamente las vidas de muchos cristianos en Nigeria al crear conciencia sobre la persecuci\u00f3n en curso y ejercer presi\u00f3n sobre el gobierno nigeriano para que tome medidas. El presidente Joe Biden levant\u00f3 la designaci\u00f3n de CPC de Nigeria en 2021 por razones desconocidas.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

El presidente de International Christian Concern, Shawn Wright, dio la bienvenida a la noticia de la designaci\u00f3n de CPC para Nigeria.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEstamos profundamente agradecidos por este importante reconocimiento\u201d, dijo Wright. \u201cRepresenta un paso significativo hacia la movilizaci\u00f3n de la comunidad global para enfrentar las atrocidades que han devastado a tantas familias y comunidades en Nigeria. Nuestra oraci\u00f3n es que esta designaci\u00f3n anime a otros l\u00edderes mundiales a seguir el ejemplo y que conduzca a acciones tangibles que brinden alivio y un cambio duradero para aquellos que sufren a manos de extremistas violentos\u201d.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

La decisi\u00f3n marca una se\u00f1al pol\u00edtica significativa, renovando la atenci\u00f3n internacional sobre la crisis cada vez peor de derechos humanos y libertad religiosa en Nigeria, donde grupos extremistas como Boko Haram, ISWAP y militantes fulani han seguido llevando a cabo ataques devastadores contra comunidades cristianas, a menudo con impunidad.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Trump comparti\u00f3 las asombrosas cifras de las masacres reportadas, se\u00f1alando que m\u00e1s de 3,100 cristianos nigerianos han sido asesinados en comparaci\u00f3n con los 4,476 cristianos asesinados en todo el mundo, lo que subraya a Nigeria como el epicentro mundial de la violencia basada en la fe.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

El presidente a\u00f1adi\u00f3 que est\u00e1 pidiendo al representante Riley Moore (R-WV) y al representante Tom Cole (R-OK), presidente del Comit\u00e9 de Asignaciones de la C\u00e1mara, que \u201cinvestiguen de inmediato\u201d la matanza en curso de cristianos en Nigeria.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEstados Unidos no puede quedarse de brazos cruzados mientras ocurren tales atrocidades en Nigeria y en otros numerosos pa\u00edses\u201d, escribi\u00f3 Trump.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Los cristianos en Nigeria han enfrentado ataques continuos con un apoyo m\u00ednimo de la comunidad internacional, lo que ha llevado a miembros del Congreso de los EE. UU. a pedir al presidente que tome medidas en las \u00faltimas semanas.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Muchos han caracterizado la violencia contra los cristianos en Nigeria como un \u201cgenocidio cristiano\u201d, ya que han ocurrido incidentes violentos dentro de iglesias y comunidades cristianas en las regiones central y norte del pa\u00eds.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Las condiciones de seguridad en Nigeria se han deteriorado en los \u00faltimos a\u00f1os, particularmente en el norte, que es predominantemente musulm\u00e1n. Desde que Bola Tinubu asumi\u00f3 el cargo de presidente en 2023, m\u00e1s de 10,000 personas han sido asesinadas, cientos han sido\u00a0<\/span>secuestrados<\/span><\/a>, y m\u00e1s de 3 millones de personas han sido desplazadas de sus hogares.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

En los primeros\u00a0<\/span>siete meses<\/span><\/a>\u00a0de 2025 solamente, m\u00e1s de 7,000 cristianos han sido asesinados, un promedio de 35 muertes por d\u00eda. Las atrocidades llevaron a Moore a solicitar formalmente que el Secretario de Estado Marco Rubio designara a Nigeria como Pa\u00eds de Especial Preocupaci\u00f3n (CPC) el 5 de octubre.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cLos cristianos est\u00e1n siendo perseguidos y asesinados en Nigeria por profesar su fe en nuestro Se\u00f1or y Salvador, Jesucristo\u201d, public\u00f3 el representante Moore en X. \u201cLos asesinatos deben parar. Es por eso que estoy instando a @SecRubio a designar a Nigeria como un Pa\u00eds de Especial Preocupaci\u00f3n. Debemos usar todas las herramientas diplom\u00e1ticas para poner fin a esta horrible matanza de nuestros hermanos y hermanas en Cristo\u201d.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

En una entrevista reciente, Moore describi\u00f3 a Nigeria como el lugar m\u00e1s\u00a0<\/span>peligroso<\/span><\/a>\u00a0del mundo para los cristianos, se\u00f1alando que el 82% de los cristianos perseguidos asesinados entre octubre de 2022 y septiembre de 2023 murieron en Nigeria. Muchos estadounidenses y personas en todo el mundo siguen sin conocer la violencia en curso en el pa\u00eds.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEstados Unidos no puede quedarse de brazos cruzados mientras los creyentes son masacrados\u201d, dijo Moore\u00a0<\/span>declar\u00f3<\/span><\/a>. \u201cDebemos reconocer la naturaleza religiosa de este flagelo de violencia anticristiana por parte de terroristas isl\u00e1micos radicales. Es hora de que Estados Unidos defienda a nuestros hermanos y hermanas en Cristo, y designar a Nigeria como un Pa\u00eds de Especial Preocupaci\u00f3n proporcionar\u00e1 las herramientas diplom\u00e1ticas necesarias para hacer precisamente eso. Insto al Secretario Rubio a designar a Nigeria como un CPC sin demora\u201d.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

La violencia reciente tambi\u00e9n\u00a0<\/span>llev\u00f3\u00a0<\/span><\/a>al senador Ted Cruz (R-TX) a presentar una legislaci\u00f3n destinada a responsabilizar a los funcionarios nigerianos por facilitar los ataques yihadistas isl\u00e1micos contra los cristianos. Figuras p\u00fablicas en los medios, incluido Bill Maher, tambi\u00e9n han pedido una mayor conciencia sobre esta persecuci\u00f3n y han desafiado a los medios a destacar el problema.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
