Nicaragua Salutes ICJ Decision on Honduras Case
Nicaragua expressed satisfaction before UN due to the most recent decision of the International Court of Justice, which put an end to the Territorial and Maritime Dispute between that country and neighboring Honduras.

When taking part in the plenary session dedicated to the analysis of the annual report of ICJ, acting ambassador of that Central American country at UN Mario H. Castellon Duarte expressed that decision was finally welcomed by the two sides.

"It is because the subject had two facets, the insular and the maritime one, and the decision of the Court was favorable regarding each one of them", the diplomat indicated.

The Ambassador said that the position assumed by the Court was the result of an absolutely objective examination, and also complete, and impartial of the legal regulations and appropriate facts.

"We must highlight the maturity of both governments before the decision became public, who promised to mutually support each other, something never seen in history, without mattering the result ", Castellon Duarte added.

He emphasized that decision happens in a ground of great interest for the international community as a whole, which is the one referred to the maritime boundary, regarding which the Court has made direct contributions of great importance and interest.
