Micheletti Rejects Further Costa Rica Mediation With Honduras

Tegucigalpa, Honduras (AFP)--Honduras' de facto leader, Roberto Micheletti, has declared that Costa Rican President Oscar Arias' role as a mediator in the Honduran crisis was over, following the surprise return of ousted President Manuel Zelaya.

"I think Mr. Arias has absolutely nothing to do with this conflict any longer, " Micheletti said in a television interview late Monday. "His role is finished, from the moment Mr. Zelaya arrived in the country without any mediation or agreement in common with anyone to do it."

Zelaya surprised Honduras' de facto government by turning up earlier Monday at the Brazilian embassy here nearly three months after his ouster and as world leaders gathered in New York for the U.N. General Assembly.
