No Second Chance for Zelaya in Honduras
In: Latin America| Politics| honduras
3 Dec 2009After a 10 hour session, the Honduran Congress voted yesterday not to reinstate ousted president Manuel Zelaya, 111-14. The vote followed the guidelines set in The Tegucigalpa-San Jose agreement signed on Oct. 30, sponsored by the United States.

The Honduran presidential elections took place this past Sunday and despite there being a winner, Porfirio “Pepe” Lobo with 55.9% of the vote, the political crisis in the Central American country is far from resolved.

Coup leader Micheletti has suspended constitutional civil rights while trying to say (like some comments left here) that the [...]
Meanwhile in Honduras : President Zelaya Kind of Returns & Micheletti Goes into Dictator Mode
In: Latin America| Politics| Violence| honduras
24 Sep 2009I continue to be amazed at how anyone could say that a country under curfew, with airports closed, is anything but a dictatorship, especially given that the self-proclaimed president in power took it via force. According to my dictionary, it fits the definition of a country after a coup. Comparing Honduras to what I [...]
