No Date Set for Honduran Lawmakers to Vote on Reinstating Zelaya

HeadlineNov 03, 2009

In Honduras, lawmakers have yet to decide when Congress will vote to reinstate ousted President Manuel Zelaya as part of a US-brokered deal. Leaders in Honduras’s Congress say they will meet today to discuss Zelaya’s reinstatement, but congressional president Jose Alfredo Saavedra said he would not be rushed despite calls from diplomats not to delay the vote. Meanwhile, opponents of the coup took to the streets again yesterday calling for Zelaya’s reinstatement.

Honduran Protester: “Nation, restitution or death. And if you need to kill seven million people, kill us. We don’t care about our life. What we want is democracy.”
