any place and any time, to find a solution
to the current situation."
"I told him (Carter) that if I am an
obstacle to bring peace to my country and to
strength our democracy, I am ready to be
aside, as long as my fellow citizens can
chose a new president in the elections of
Nov. 29," Micheletti said.
"I told him (Carter) we are open to any
visitor and we expect president Arias to
visit us to talk with us and former
president Zelaya," Micheletti added. |
