 Revista Envío - Three Years of Arena Presidency
Yet the sharpest criticisms of Cristiani's term come precisely from those who were, until December 1991, his most ardent defenders: the recalcitrant right wing and the army, both of whom see his signing of the peace accords, particularly what they term the "imposition" of the Chapultepec accords, as nothing less than betrayal.
Cristiani will have to contend with the political discontent of the right wing, as no internal shifts are foreseen in either ARENA or the rest of the right before the 1994 elections.
Cristiani, however, will continue to underscore his government's two achievements of peace and economic recovery, despite recalcitrance from the far right around the first issue and criticism from the opposition around the second.
