Speaking to TV channel Telesur, Chavez said
that Zelaya's attempt to land in Honduras
abroad a
Venezuelan plane was a victory, because
"they (the coup plotters) do not dare to
touch him even a hair."
He also described the coup plotters and
militaries who impeded Zelaya's landing at
the international airport of Tocontin in
Tegucigalpa Monday as "cowards."
Chavez wondered how a military junta can
challenge the world, referring to
condemnation against the coup in Honduras
made by many Latin American countries and
international organizations.
The president urged Honduran militaries to
lay down their arms and not to threaten the
lives of their compatriots.
