MEXICO - EL SALVADOR: New Initiative at UN
Mexico is convinced that, without leftist participa-
tion, the elections scheduled for March in El Salvador
will fail to end the violence, and it is using the UN to
try to bring international pressure to bear on the
Salvadoran Government. Following the collapse of its
efforts to persuade the junta to talk with the rebels,
Mexico--backed by eight predominantly European countries--
is sponsoring a UN resolution that condemns the Salvadoran
Government's human rights record and calls for a nego-
tiated political solution. If passed, the resolution
would seriously erode the junta's international image and
undercut its attempts to establish the legitimacy of the
elsctions.
The reaction in Latin America earlier this fall to
the joint declaration on El Salvador by Mexico and France
suggests that the UN resolution will have limited appeal
there. Mexico, however, is counting on support from
Western Europe, the Soviet bloc, and Third World states
in the vote expected early next week.
