Honduras' Micheletti
Ready To Resume
Talks With Ousted Zelaya
Tegucigalpa -- Honduras'
post-coup leader Roberto Micheletti said
here Thursday that he was willing to resume
talks with ousted President Manuel Zelaya
after a planned meeting between them failed
to be held in Costa Rica.
Earlier on Thursday, Micheletti returned
home from San Jose after a meeting with
Costa Rican President Oscar Arias, who is
acting as a mediator to help resolve the
Honduran political crisis after the coup on
June 28.
Micheletti said he would return for the
talks "If necessary and if I am invited by
President Arias."
After the meeting with Arias, Micheletti
said Honduras' elections, scheduled for Nov.
29 to choose a new president, 128 deputies
and 298 mayors, will be "transparent and
safe" and will "consolidate" democracy in
his country.
He said a negotiation commission had been
formed, which will meet with the commission
formed by Zelaya to continue talks. |
