Argentina asked for troops to stop El Salvador supplies NEW YORK (AP) - Reagan administration officials have approached the government of Argentina about having that country infiltrate combat forces into Nicaragua, ABC News reports Basing its report on an un identified congressional source, ABC reported Wednes day that the purpose of the infil tration would be to help choke off supplies allegedly being sent to rebels in El Salvador from Cuba through Nicaragua If all went well, the troops might mount a counter-revolution against Nicaragua's ruling left ist junta. ABC said The report said the combat troops would wear no uniforms but would be infiltrating as Latin American freedom fighters and would operate in guerrilla fa shion A spokesman at the Argentine Embassy in Washington called the report completely an in vention State Department spokesman Alan Romberg refused comment, but added that lack of a response should not be read as an implicit con firmation ” At the White House spokes man David Gergen refused comment and then cautioned reporters against reading a confirmation or denial into his no comment Asked if the United States would engage in overt or covert action, or join with another na tion to overthrow a government now in place, Gergen replied that policy statements” have been made on the issue in the past and that he would not try to repeat them off the top of my head ' Meanwhile, Capt Roberto Sanchez, a Nicaraguan Army spokesman, said Wednesday the Sandimsta government had "significant evidence" that rebels inside Nicaragua have received logistic support from elements of the Argentine mili tary In an interview in Managua, Nicaragua. Sanchez said rebels were being advised by Argen tinian officers. He did not, how ever, present any evidence of the Argentinian role On Tuesday, Secretary of State Alexander Haig said the United States, in cooperation with its Latin American allies, would do whatever is neces sary” to block a victory by leftists in El Salvador In Senate testimony, Haig said the administration was 'considering a whole range of options — political, economic and security — in response to Cuban intervention in this hemisphere." This week, the State Department also stepped up its verbal attack against leftist Nicaragua, denouncing it as "a base for the export of subver sion and armed intervention throughout Central America ” The sources, however, said the intervention of other coun tries in the political turmoil of Central America could draw in other nations and end up spreading the conflict through out Latin America One informed source said the Argentinians have a military training mission in El Salvador, totalling about 50 men However, El Salvador s ambas sador to the United States, Er nesto Rivas Gallont, denied the presence of any Argentinian military trainers Valentine’s dav means shaped BALLOONS!'
