More Marines Sent To Nicaragua Amid Congressional Row
The United States moves 1,200 more Marines to Nicaragua, joining about 3,400 already there, and directs five U S destroyers to the Caribbean as Congress splits over the policy. Republican insurgents call for Sandino’s capture or withdrawal, while Nye plans a Senate resolution opposing military force to safeguard foreign investments. The action risks fueling anti U S sentiment across Latin America.
