The Senate Select Committee has scheduled the next
hearing in its ongoing oversight of the Administration's
support of the Nicaraguan democratic resistance. It will
convene at 2:00 P.M. on Tuesday, 17 March, in the SSCI
Hearing Room, SH-219.
Since your Agency is responsible for executing the
program we request your participation in the hearing, along
with and his
immediate supervisor in the Directorate of Operations.
Your testimony should provide your best assessment of
the prospects for democratic reform of the Nicaraguan
resistance leadership, successful negotiation of democratic
changes within Nicaragua, and effective pressure against
Sandinista controls and authority throughout Nicaragua.
We have asked the Secretary of State, who is
responsible for providing the policy guidance to and
supervising the actions of this program, to be represented
at this hearing by his Assistant Secretaries for
Intelligence and Research and for Inter-American affairs.
We have specifically requested that they testify on the
Administration's policy and plans toward Nicaragua through
1988, including alternative concepts for spending the $40
million remaining in the current fiscal year and for using
whatever funds may be authorized for Fiscal Year 1988.
