yesterday, saying Nicaragua was the
real "problem in Central America."
"IT IS Nicaragua that has armed
itself to the teeth," he said. "It is
Nicaragua that has imposed a
totalitarian government, suppressed
freedom of the press, sought to un-
dermine the church and mistreated
elements of its population.
"The people of Nicaragua do not
accept that. They are trying to fight
for the freedom of their country, and I
think that's a cause that deserves
being supported," Shultz said.
Despite the differences of opinion,
Shultz said the United States "fully
supports" the Contadora nations. The
group has been working for 2i, years
on a negotiated solution to the civil
wars in Nicaragua and El Salvador.
Shultz came to Mexico for the fifth
annual meeting of the U.S.-Mexico
Binational Commission, attended by
President Miguel de la Madrid and
other top Mexican officials.
