Ya ha habido incidentes militares en la frontera de Nicaragua y Costa Rica... Costa Rica no tiene ejército, los incidentes han sido las palizas de los soldados nicaragüenses a varios granjeros de Costa Rica.
El nuevo canal rivalizaría con el de Panamá; un duro golpe para la economía del tradicional aliado norteamericano.
The recent border dispute between Costa Rica and Nicaragua is a sign of an ambitious plan by Venezuela, Iran and Nicaragua to create a "Nicaragua Canal" linking the Atlantic and Pacific oceans that would rival the existing Panama Canal.
Costa Rica says that last week Nicaraguan troops entered its territory along the San Juan River – the border between the two nations. Nicaragua had been conducting channel deepening work on the river when the incident occurred.
Sources in Latin America have told Haaretz that the border incident and the military pressure on Costa Rica, a country without an army, are the first step in a plan formulated by Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez and Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega, with funding and assistance from Iran, to create a substitute for the strategically and economically important Panama Canal.
La cosa estratégica ya la olisqueamos el otro día.
