Ortega Defies Negotiation Calls Over Central American War
Nicaraguan leader Daniel Ortega accused Washington of directing the war from the White House and Honduras. He rejected negotiation with rebels, blaming U.S. policy shaped by Congress and the Reagan administration. Ortega cited the Contadora process while denouncing foreign advisers and asserting the invasion narrative, as U.S. aid package and Senate vote intensified regional tensions. He also criticized House and Senate actions and warned of unilateral U.S. policy deepening involvement in the conflict.
