Honduran Government, US Puppet : Election Expert
TEGUCIGALPA - Honduran political
observer and analyst Eduardo Bahr said
Monday the government elected Sunday will be
a puppet of US policy in Central America.
"The winner in these elections has to follow
the guidelines of Washington and act as an
ideological cap on the progressive ideas in
the south of the continent," said Bahr in an
interview to news agency TELESUR Monday.
Bahr said that Porfirio Lobo, the winner in
the Sunday elections, will have to face a
very organized resistance.
Gathered in the National Resistance Front
against the Coup the popular opposition to
the coupist government of Honduras is
strengthened and with the bases for a new
political party, said Bahr.
He also said the level of abstention reached
close to 70 percent in the elections, a
record in the nation.
Bahr, director of the Honduran National
Library, was a political observer during the
elections, which were characterized by
repression and considered a sham by the
international community. |
