New Dilatory Maneuvers by Honduras Coup Junta

Tegucigalpa, Nov 19, (PL).- The National Front Against the Coup in Honduras charged that a delay of debate in congress on the restitution of institutional rule confirms the intention of the de facto regime to maintain power.

The day before the president of Congress, Jose Alfredo Saavedra, announced that the restitution or not of President Manuel Zelaya would be analyzed on December 2, three days after the general elections.

"This is a monstrosity and provocation by the Congress" declared the general coordinator of the Front, Juan Barahona and charged that it is proof that the coup regime is not interested in restoring democratic order.

For the front that groups dozens of popular organizations the decision by Parliament ratifies the illegitimacy of the election process called for November 29.

The debate in Congress on the restitution of the president is one of the points agreed to last October 30 to try to solve the crisis.

However, the pact failed with regime head, Roberto Micheletti, intended to form a government of unity and national reconciliation before restoring the legitimate president.

Zelaya denounced that paradox that while he is in the Brazilian embassy surrounded by police and military forces Micheletti is in the Government House.

The Constitutional Head of State condemned the position of the United States backing the elections before restoring institutional order.

The president considers Washingtonâ�Ös position as an enormous contradiction at first recognizing him as president but supporting the elections prior to presidential restitution that supports the coup.

"I have declared to the world. There are no conditions in Honduras to exercise the people´s freedom and will to peacefully choose their authorities," he added.
