Honduras-Mexico Agree on Sea Border
The Honduras Legislature approved an agreement to define the maritime demarcation between this Central American nation and Mexico on Thursday, a congressional text confirmed.

According to the document, the agreement was previously signed on April 2005 by Chancellors Luis Ernesto Derbez (Mexico) and Leonidas Rosa (Honduras).

Unanimously ratified by the 128 deputies of five political parties, the decision coincides with Honduran President Manuel Zelaya s official visit to Mexico, where he hopes to exchange on the treaty with President Vicente Fox.

The government plans to mark its frontiers in the Caribbean Sea with other nations as well, among them Jamaica, Grand Cayman, Guatemala, Belize and Nicaragua.
