Chamorro's presidency saw decreasing US interest in Nicaragua to the point that when Chamorro traveled to the US in April 1991 to ask Congress for more economic aid, few members even showed up to listen to her.
Ajal, mil Chamorro oli Nicaragua president, kahanes USA huvi Nicaragua vastu sedavõrd drastiliselt, et kui Chamorro aprillis 1991 USA-sse reidis, et riigile suuremat majanduslikku abi paluda, ilmusid teda kuulama vaid üksikud Kongressi liikmed.
