ONE year after Violeta Barrios de Chamorro was inaugurated as president, Nicaragua remains a country in crisis.
Sandinista strikers continue to snarl government operations.
With more than 60 percent of the population in poverty and 40 percent unemployed, Nicaragua's economic situation is desperate. All of which, observers here say, still represents progress. On the anniversary of her first year in power, Mrs. Chamorro faces an array of problems that would daunt any government. So far, she has failed to deliver on her promise of economic recovery. And the peace she helped establish is tenuous.
