Legal Status of Zelaya's Embassy Stay Remains Undefined
Last Updated on Tuesday, 15 December 2009 09:09
Deposed president Manuel Zelaya said on Thursday that he intends to remain at the Brazilian embassy in Tegucigalpa until his term of office ends on January 27, 2010. Meanwhile, Honduras' Minister of Foreign Relations, Carlos López, has again asked the government of Brazil to define the juridical status of Mr. Zelaya's presence in the embassy. Mr. Zelaya has been living in the embassy since September 21, but the government of President Luis Lula has neglected to clarify the terms of his residence in its diplomatic mission. The Brazilian government has ignored numerous petitions from the Ministry of Foreign Relations because it does not officially recognize the interim government of President Roberto Micheletti.
