Honduran coup not to last long: Brazilian FM
Rio de Janeiro - Brazilian
Foreign Minister Celso Amorim said on Monday
that the Honduran interim government, which
took over after a coup in late June, would
not resist the international political
pressure.
The minister said the new regime would not
last long without the financial support of
the World Bank and the Inter-American
Development Bank (IDB), without oil supply
and relations with the United States.
"It will not last a month, only a few days
or weeks," Amorim said at a press
conference.
Amorim believes that the natural way for the
country is the return of the deposed
President Manuel Zelaya.
According to the minister, the coup in
Honduras does not fit the reality of today's
world. "There is no longer a place in the
world for a coup like this, in which you
arrive in the morning with a machine gun and
put the president out of the country in his
pajamas."
The minister also commented on the
Organization of American States (OAS)'
decision to exclude Honduras, saying that it
bears no resemblance to the sanctions
applied to Cuba in the 1960s.
Amorim also lamented over the two deaths in
the violent incidents Sunday in Tegucigalpa,
capital of Honduras. He also said Brazil had
no plans of using violence to interfere. |
