Costa lived and worked in Esteli, a city in northern Nicaragua near the Honduran border. In her presentation, Costa claimed that the U.S.-backed Contras do not represent the political feelings of the Nicaraguan people. The following two people have been invited to express in this issue their views on the Contra-Sandinista situation.
