Talk:Nicaragua–United States relations

Untitled
I placed the POV tag when creating the article because it is pasted from a US government website. Because this comes from a US govt source it may not be neutral, but I don't have the expertise to judge. (Hopefully others that know more will simply remove the tag if they think the article looks okay.) Mangostar (talk) 01:26, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

I just heard in my world politics class that the US and Nicaragua have previously had sour relations, specifically, one took the other to an international court and the United States left the international justice system after the court ruled in favor of Nicaragua. I wanted to find out more, not get a US government publication. Thus, I agree the POV is not neutral, as there is no evidence of this event here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.114.219.25 (talk) 18:31, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

I likewise agree that the article is highly biased in favor of the USA; it does not even mention the Contras, if I recall correctly. 自教育 (talk) 20:52, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

Section on early History? William Walker?
I feel like this article would be remiss if it did not mention William Walker (filibuster), a man who sojourned down to Nicaragua during a civil war there and made himself president. He reinstated slavery and ruled like a despot; yet his government received recognition from the U.S. under the administration of Franklin Pierce. Walker was an important example of many people's desire in the Southern and Western United states to spread slavery into Latin America. This is an important event in defining early relations between the two countries.

It seems like this article seems to only cover recent relations between the two countries right now.
