Latin America urged to unite against Cuban backed threat
Secretary of State Haig urged Latin American nations at the OAS to curb Nicaragua's militarization and stop the import of heavy weapons, warning of war risk in Central America. He said the U.S. has no plans to send troops and pressed for regional cooperation to limit foreign advisers and uphold democracy. The speech linked Cuba and Nicaragua to unrest, while Nicaragua's Miguel d Escoto denounced U.S. accusations as lies and verbal terrorism. The United States cut off aid to Nicaragua earlier this year over arms flows to Salvadoran rebels.
