Shultz Ortega Open to Meeting on Nicaragua Peace Proposals
Both Secretary of State George P. Shultz and Nicaragua's Daniel Ortega said they are willing to hold talks on Ortega's peace proposals but no meeting is confirmed while they stay at the Victoria Plaza Hotel in Montevideo during Uruguay's inauguration events. Shultz called the Cuban withdrawal proposal a token move and noted the chance of a larger reduction if it leads to dialogue, as U.S. officials weigh next steps amid tensions over Nicaragua's armed forces and regional security.
