A sign of progress in this area is the supply of Russian buses to the Central American country, which has received approximately 1,500 totally new units, incorporated into the Nicaraguan public transport service, between 2009 and 2023.
In addition to this, the Russian Federation also incorporated in this series of agreements, maintenance services and spare parts, which «ensures that the vehicle fleet can be maintained in optimal conditions» and even that has generated the rapprochement of the other Central American nations «to know this working experience» with Russia.
