Honduras and Nicaragua have asked the Organization of American States (OAS) for technical and financial assistance for a binational border project that would help promote better relations between the two countries. In a January 26 statement, the OAS said the two countries issued a joint request to OAS acting Secretary-General Luigi Einuadi for assistance in resolving problems caused by the diversion of the Rio Negro (Black River). The river diversion is a result of Hurricane Mitch, which devastated Central America in October and November 1998.
The OAS said the Rio Negro makes up a significant area of the international border between Honduras and Nicaragua. The requested assistance would go toward the binational project to protect and fully develop the river's basin.
