To express the sense of the House of Representatives concerning the election of Violeta Chamorro as President of Nicaragua.

Summary

Congratulates Violeta Chamorro on her electoral victory in Nicaragua and Daniel Ortega for ensuring that the election was free and fair. Urges the current Government to comply with the law in turning over power to the National Opposition Union (UNO), including the separation of the military from Sandinista control. Commends Ortega and Chamorro for calling for an end to arms shipments to guerillas fighting in El Salvador. Supports: (1) the speedy negotiation of a ceasefire in Nicaragua; (2) the peaceful reintegration of the resistance into Nicaraguan society; and (3) the removal of sanctions enacted against Nicaragua in 1985, contingent upon an effective and fair transition of power to UNO and presidential certification that arms shipments to the FMLN guerillas have ceased. Encourages other nations to cooperate with and assist Nicaragua in rebuilding.
