The Acting Secretary of State to the Honduran Minister for Foreign Affairs (Lozano H.)46
The Government of the United States in association with the Governments of Costa Rica and Venezuela is glad to tender its good offices to the Governments of Honduras and Nicaragua with the hope that this friendly service may facilitate a pacific solution of the boundary controversy which has unfortunately arisen between the two Republics.
Should the Republics of Honduras and Nicaragua be disposed to accept this tender of good offices, the three Governments will be happy to offer suggestions for the alleviation of the present tension in the relations between the Republics of Honduras and Nicaragua, and, once that result is accomplished, to make suggestions as to means, equally acceptable to both parties, which might be adopted by Honduras and Nicaragua with the object of reaching a definitive settlement of the controversy.
- The same, mutatis mutandis, October 21, to the Nicaraguan Minister for Foreign Affairs, Cordero Reyes.↩
