There is a question for which we will never know the answer: had the U.S. not launched the Contra war to overthrow the Sandinista government, would they have succeeded in bringing socioeconomic justice to the people of Nicaragua? – Bianca Jagger

The Sandinista government became consumed with fighting a war of survival. They were up against the biggest superpower in the world. – Bianca Jagger

I am still profoundly troubled by the war in Nicaragua. The United States launched a covert war against another nation in violation of international law, a war that was wrong and immoral. – Bianca Jagger
