Bush welcomes election results
WASHINGTON — President Bush yesterday hailed Violeta Chamorro's upset election in Nicaragua as a mandate for peace and democracy and hinted that he might lift U.S. trade sanctions.

Bush said the vote to oust leftist President Daniel Ortelia moved Nicaraquai closer to democracy. He called for a peaceful transfer of power from the Sandinista government that has rulied for 10 years.
"Given the clear mandate for peace and democracy, there is no
Some members of Congress immediately called for aid for Chamorro's government, which is to be inaugurated April 25.
"We must provide her new government with aid, and let's not kid ourselves — it will take big bucks," Senate Minority Leader Bob Dole said.

United States celebrates Ortega defeat
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - Former U.S. officials who helped mount military and economic opposition to the Nicaraguan government celebrated yesterday after the defeat of Daniel Ortega.
They said the courage of the Nicaraguan people contributed to his defeat as much as did any U.S. efforts.
The election triumph by Violeta Chamorro resulted from the struggles of the Nicaraguan people, said Oliver North.
However, Elliott Abrams, former assistant secretary of state, said the United States deserved credit for Ortega's defeat. He joined two former aides to win the tournament for champagne lunch at an upscale restaurant to celebrate the news from Managua.
"Without the bravery of those people, the victory of democracy today would not have occurred," he said. "We must cry to the prayers of many people."
North, who was convicted of three felonies for his role in the Iran-contra affair, was a key player in the Reagan policy of providing military support for the contra rebels. He was found guilty last year of shredding contra-related documents.

does," Dole said.
"I hope Chamorro will help improving U.S.-Nicaraguan relations because the embargo has affected
largely my country's economy." she said.
Ingrid Tunnermann, Managua junior, also said Chamorro's victory was unexpected.
Tomasek said he was surprised by Chameroz's victory because polls showed Ortega holding a large lead.
Robert Tomasek, KU professor of political science, said Nicaragua's troubled economy was the main reason for the Sandinista loss.
Tomasek said that he expected the 1984 U.S. embargo to be lifted, but that the country's economic problems would not be solved entirely by removing the embargo. Substantial U.S. aid also is necessary, he said.
The United States could have a problem financially supporting Nicaea, which promised to Panama and Eastern European countries, Tomasek said.
Liz Maggard, a member of Latin
American Solidarity in Lawrence, said removing the embargo would help Nicaragua's economy more than substantial U.S. financial aid.
But Maggard said that the United States should give Nicaragua some financial support because of the ecological crisis that followed the embargo.
Casualties suffered during the war with U.S.-supported contras also were a reason the United States should support Nicaragua's economy, Maggard said.
