Part two of a speech by Victor Hugo Tenoco, former Vice Foreign Minister of the Sandinista Government in Nicaragua, delivered at Georgia State University in 1991. Tenoco argues that Nicaragua today faces two major problems: democracy and reconciliation and economic recovery. The FSLN needs to serve as constructive opposition to the ruling government. He argues that democracy and reconciliation have made great progress in Nicaragua with the disbanding of the Contras but that the economic problems of the country still loom large for the future. The FSLN is in a difficult position of balancing national interests in economic reconstruction and protecting the concrete interests of the poor. He sees aide as unavoidable. The question remains whether U.S. aide will simply service the national debt or go to rebuild the Nicaraguan economy.
