  José Napoleón Duarte - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Duarte was determined to end the civil war by "dialogue without arms" with the FMLN, and on October 15, 1984 in La Palma, Chalatenango he met FMLN leaders face to face, which marked the beginning of the end of the civil war.
During 1985, Duarte tried to improve the record of the state by banning the Air Force from bombing civilian areas without presidential permission, creating an Investigative Commission to investigate political assassinations, and persecuting the right-wing death squads that were alleged to be embedded in the state security services.
Duarte was increasingly seen as powerless not only between the two opposing forces of left and right but also in terms of the US anti-communist political influence in the region.

 Roberto D'Aubuisson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He came in second in the first round, but lost to the Christian Democratic Party candidate José Napoleón Duarte in the second round on May 2, gaining 46.4% of the vote.
He claimed that the election was fraudulent, and that the United States, which had openly supported Duarte, had interfered to prevent the Salvadoran people from being able to expressing their true wishes.
In December 1984 D'Aubuisson visited Washington to attend a dinner held in his honour by a group of US conservative organizations, and to receive a plaque recognising his "continuing efforts for freedom in the face of communist aggression which is an inspiration to freedom-loving people everywhere."

 Annual Report 1984-1985 Chapter IV El Salvador
While, according to the complaints received, the armed forces of El Salvador are responsible for most of this violence, the guerrillas are not excluded, and they are also accused of cruel acts of murder, torture and other violations of basic human rights.
In October 1984, President José Napoleón Duarte began efforts to restore peace and social harmony in El Salvador by opening up dialogue with guerrilla leaders whom he invited publicly in his address to the United Nations General Assembly on October 8, 1984, to participate in talks to that end.
Although the results of the two rounds of talks between President Duarte and the guerrilla leaders have not attained the objectives proposed, the IACHR agrees with the hope voiced by many sectors that talks should be continued and a final collapse of these efforts should be avoided.
