  • Security Council Distr
    UNITED NATIONS Security Council Distr. - GENERAL s/15422 23 September 1982 ENGLISH ORIGINAL: SPANISH LETTER DATED 21 SEPTEMBER 1982 FROM THE PERMANENT REPRESENTATIVE OF NICARAGUA TO THE UNITED NATIONS ADDRESSED TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE SECURITY 03UNCIL I have the honour to refer to the note dated 23 August 1982 (S/15384) from the Minister for Foreign Affairs of Honduras, Dr. Mgardo Paz Barnica, to the then President of the Security Council, Mr. Noel Eorr, in which he accuses Nicaragua of a series of harassments against his country. The Covernmentof National Reconstruction of Nicaragua finds it surprising that the Government of Honduras should claim to be the victim of frontier tensions, since, as we stated in our note of 16 August (S/15365), those who died as a result of the well-known criminal incursions carried out from Honduran territory by former guards of the Somoza r&gime were Nicaraguan citizens, and not Hondurans. Consolidation of social tranquillity, reconstruction of our economy and defence of our frontiers are absolute priorities for the people and Government of Nicaragua. It is therefore absurd to suggest that Nicaragua would be interested in jeopardizing its efforts and diverting its limited human and material r@.@ourc@s by launching campaigns against its neighbours. Nicaragua did not invent the causes of the malaise in other countries and has no intention of providing grounds for accusations whose purpose is to promote and justify the increasing intervention of the United States in the internal affairs of Central America. Against this background, it is astonishing that the Government of Honduras should presume to urge the Security Council to "encourage the use by Nicaragua of diplomatic means to promote and ensure peace in the Central American region", in view of the well-known gestures for peace and dialogue which Nicaragua has made to the Council and to the international community on a number of occasions.
