Memo on Reagan policy and the Caraballeda plan standoff
Roving editor argues Habib is sent to Nicaragua as a smokescreen to avoid negotiating. He cites the Caraballeda plan backed by Latin American nations and rejects it, accusing Reagan of preserving U S military control while backing contras. Perez Esquivel warns Nicaragua's independence threatens U S hegemony and prompts continued intervention. He contends Habib’s trip is a diversion to shape Congress support for further aid and killing.
