Archbishop Arturo Rivera y Damas delivered a Salvadoran government proposal for a third round of peace talks to rebel representatives during a one-day visit to Costa Rica and brought back an undisclosed reply, a church source reported. The source said government officials met at a resort hotel near San Salvador to consider the rebels’ response. The Salvadoran government of President Jose Napoleon Duarte is believed to want a third round of talks with the rebels before Duarte travels to the United States in May. The church arranged and mediated the first two rounds of talks last fall.
