Talk:Territorial disputes of Nicaragua

Untitled

The last part of the article says Costa Rica has claims concerning the sovereignity over the San Juan River. That is untrue. Niacragua is the EXCLUSIVE owner of the river and Costa Rica is not contesting that. The present dispute in the International Court of Justice is exclusively about the extension of the rights of navigation Costa Rica has in the lower section of the said river. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 196.40.57.129 (talk) 22:20, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

2010 Controversy with Costa Rica

The caption is not the place to discuss such contentious issues. Create a new section and please use reliable and neutral sources (preferably not news outlets from neither CR or Nicaragua) such as the New York Times, The Economist, etc. Local news outlets are good only to reference the position of each government. Since this is an ongoing dispute, the use of RS and keeping NPOV might be enforced strictly. Even better would be to discuss and look for consensus here first.-Mariordo (talk) 00:31, 13 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not use the image captions to develop the article, create a section for this particular dispute, and provided both point of view in a balanced way. I assumed you are acting on good faith so I will not reverse again, but please fix it. Contentious issues should be edited rigorously following wiki policies.-Mariordo (talk) 06:17, 13 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A section dealing with this subject was created in the article Nicaragua–Costa Rica San Juan River border dispute#2010 Isla Calero dispute. I moving some of my previous comments to the Talk page in that article.-Mariordo (talk) 17:49, 13 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

User AlexCovarrubias has twice removed the sketch from Gen. Alexander's 1897 arbitration award, and left only his own sketch of the current border dispute with Costa Rica. I object strongly to this, since the image from the Alexander award is not only highly relevant, legally speaking, to the current border dispute, it is also a very important illustration of the history of controversies over possession and navigation of the San Juan River, which pertains directly to the subject matter of this article. Please don't remove the image again without discussing the issue in this talk page first. (Also, the image is unproblematic from the point of view of copyright, both because of its age and because it was first published by the U.S. Congress.) - Eb.hoop (talk) 19:48, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There is no territorial dispute between Nicaragua and Honduras in the Gulf of Fonseca

This article distorts reality, because there is no territorial dispute between Nicaragua and Honduras in the Gulf of Fonseca.

The ruling of the International Court of Justice in The Hague, 1992 is binding for El Salvador and Honduras compliance, but is not binding on Nicaragua, who was an observer during the trial.

Nicaragua and El Salvador are State bordering the Gulf of Fonseca. ~~David Pastor May, 04, 2015~~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by PastorDavid (talk • contribs) 21:02, 4 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
