Summary

States that the Congress: (1) supports the initiatives taken by the Contadora nations and the resulting Documents of Objectives and Principles for Implementation agreed to by Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua; (2) believes that the United States should support the effort to translate such agreed Principles into practical arrangements so as to facilitate a comprehensive regional peace agreement based on the noninterference in the affairs of other countries, national reconciliation, and democracy; and (3) believes that in fashioning U.S. policies in the region, the United States should take into consideration the degree of cooperation of Central American governments with the Contadora process in seeking a peaceful resolution to Central American conflicts.
