 Panama - Torrijos Tries Democracy
In October 1978, the National Assembly elected a thirty-eight-year-old lawyer and former education minister, Aristides Royo, to the presidency and Ricardo de la Espriella to the vice presidency, each for a six-year term.
The PRD--a potpourri of middle-class elements, peasant and labor groups, and marginal segments of Panamanian society--was the first party to be officially recognized under the registration process that began in 1979.
Despite the lopsided victory of the progovernment party and the weakness of the National Legislative Council (budgeting and appropriations were controlled by President Royo, who had been handpicked by Torrijos), this election represented a small step toward restoring democratic political processes.

In 1987, when Noriega reneged on promises made to Díaz Herrera upon his (forced) retirement, Díaz went to the Panamanian press, giving hours of rambling interviews covering just about every dirty deal that he and Noriega were involved in.
Paredes himself then became commander of the National Guard; one of his first official functions (again, with Noriega and Díaz Herrera) was to force the retirement of Panamanian president Aristides Royo.
Having done this, he issued a set of decrees (all but one presented as "recommendations") that called for the resignation of almost everyone in the civilian government, the implementation of several new laws, a review of the labor code, and a 7-day shutdown of all newspapers.

According to Royo, integral involvement of indigenous peoples in the process helps to give any draft Declaration that emerges the necessary “relevance and legitimacy.”
In calling for the Declaration to be adopted as soon as possible, the Permanent Council Chairman cautioned: “We cannot frustrate the legitimate hopes of millions of human beings as they seek recognition and attention they are historically due.”

Daniel Ortega, head of the FSLN, on the other hand said, "President Bolaños should be tranquil, no one is trying to remove him." Yadira Centeno, President of the Supreme Court, told the OAS mission that the court will "follow the law" in the case of a criminal proceeding against President Bolaños.
Rather, he said, the Comptroller's office issued its request because Bolaños refused to present information about the contributions to his presidential campaign.
