Answer
A
He intervened in Nicaragua to oppose Sandinista rebels.
B
He signed a treaty that would eventually end the Canal Zone.
C

Explanation

In 1977, President Carter signed the Panama Canal treaties with Panama, which set a timetable for ending U.S. control of the Canal Zone and transferring the canal to Panama by 1999. Carter did not award Adolfo Pérez Esquivel the Nobel Peace Prize; the Norwegian Nobel Committee did. His administration also did not intervene in Nicaragua to oppose the Sandinista rebels.
