Honduras prohibits visit of OAS crisis negotiators
ADVERTISEMENT
Published: August 9, 2009
HONDURAS - Honduras' coup-installed president says he will not allow a visit by regional delegates trying to negotiate an end to the country's political crisis because their leader lacks "impartiality and professionalism."
Interim leader Roberto Micheletti said Sunday that he would be willing to reschedule the delegation's visit, previously planned for Tuesday - as long as Organization of American States chief Jose
Miguel Insulza doesn't participate.
The Washington-based OAS on Friday announced the formation of the delegation comprising foreign ministers from Argentina, Canada, Costa Rica, Jamaica, Mexico and the Dominican Republic.
The group was going to try to persuade Micheletti to negotiate with international mediators seeking to return President Manuel Zelaya, who was ousted in a June 28 coup.
