'J- 1K''Sr' --v
Staff Reporter
Nicaraguan diplomat and poet Ro
berto Vargas told a group of graduate
political science students Tuesday that
the United States is trying to annihi
late Nicaragua.
President Reagan proposed $100
million in aid to Nicaraguan rebels in
his State of the Union address. Vargas
said the Contras aren't getting the
money and probably won't be in Nica
ragua by this summer.
"The Contras isn't a country, isn't a
nation, isn't a movement. It's a mer
cenary army," Vargas said. Vargas is the
Cultural and Labor Affairs Counselor
for Nicaragua at its U.S. Embassy in
Washington. "They don't have popular
support, so what is the justification of
giving them $100 million?"
Vargas said the ruling Sandinistas
do have the support of the people.
"If we didn't have the support of the
people, we would have been gone long
ago," he said.
He also said Nicaragua has suffered
from negative propaganda spread by
the United States.
"Nicaragua has been used as a
scapegoat for other things that are
' ragua is called "the cancer of the hemi
sphere" and "the most mortal threat to
the entire free world" because the
Sandinistas are communist.
Since the Sandinistas took power in
1979, Nicaragua has been elevated
from a "banana republic" to the "sea of
red lapping at the doorstep" of the
United States, he said.
"I don't believe or trust anything
this administration says anymore,"
Vargas said. "And I feel sorry for people
who do."
The people of Nicaragua, who have
spent 45 years under dictatorships
financed by the United States, are arm
ing themselves against the "daily threats
from the most powerful nation in the
world," he said.
Vargas will speak at a brown bag
luncheon today at 11:30 a.m. in Old-fciherSSa.
