Nicaragua, US Continue
Negotiations Meds for
Missiles
Nicaragua continued
negotiating with the
United States Wednesday
to receive medicines and
medical equipment in
return for destroying
Sam-7 missiles.
A US medical delegation
is expected to arrive in
Managua in March to
continue negotiating the
exchange, informed
Adrian Zelaya, general
secretary of the Health
Ministry.
The delegation will have
an inventory of the
hospital equipment
requested by Nicaragua
in exchange for
destroying 600 rockets
as the White House
demands.
Nicaragua acquired the
missiles in the 1970s to
face the
counterrevolutionary war
sponsored by the US
operating from Honduras. |
