I have finished this crossword except for one by which I am completely flummoxed! It's a normal cryptic clue as follows: American president's men associated with dry Watergate fiasco (6) - I have ?R?E?A. The only thing that seems to fit is ORTEGA, but I cannot parse. Can anyone help please? Thanks in advance.

Thank you both, I understand now. I knew he was/is a Nicaraguan president, but just couldn't work out the wordplay. Thanks again.
