analysis: The text appears to be a speech or statement made by a representative of Nicaragua at the United Nations, criticizing the United States for its alleged aggressive and interventionist policies towards Nicaragua and other Central American countries. The speech mentions the Contadora process, a Latin American negotiating process aimed at achieving peace and cooperation in the region, and accuses the United States of blocking this process and supporting armed bands that aim to overthrow the Nicaraguan government.
