ment of Spain considers that neither aggression nor armed intervention can be accepted and that in no case can they constitute a solution to the grave problems afflicting the Central American region. 8. My country’s Government considers, furthermore, that the military actions that have been denounced before the Council constitute a dangerous factor of insta- biIity, not only for internal peace in Nicaragua but also for the overall situation in the region and that, far from helping to alleviate existing tension, they are heightening it. 9, The Government of Spain once again emphasizes the need to guarantee the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all countries, to respect the inviolability of their borders and to reject the use or threat of use of force in international relations. 10. The events now taking place in Nicaragua once again underscore the urgent need to seek solutions for the entire area through a peace-producing process which would eliminate both general and bilateral tension that might affect the various countries of the region. In this connection my country, Spain, views with hope the possi- bility of a genuinely Latin American solution based on dialogue and making it possible to end any kind of exter- nal interference. 1 I. Mr. MASHINGAIDZE (Zimbabwe): Sir, I have on several earlier occasions already congratulated you on your assumption of the presidency for this month. March has been a truly eventful and hectic month, You have met the demands and challenges of the occasion with remarkable energy, determination and seriousness of purpose. As your presidency nears its close, it would perhaps be appropriate for us now to thank and congrat- ulate you on your successful term of office. Our congrat- ulations go also to your predecessor, Mr. Troyanovsky, whose stewardship of the Council was truly exemplary.
