Summary:

The United States needs to continue to assist the government of El Salvador to (1) develop a realistic plan for equipping and operating the National Civilian Police, (2) ensure that the National Civilian Police receive the appropriate priority relative to other Salvadoran government activities, and (3) identify and try to overcome impediments discouraging international donors from providing the help promised to El Salvador in March 1992.
