[Iran Press TV Latest] The European Union says the blocs ambassadors are back in Honduras in a show of support for the ousted President Manuel Zelaya who is seeking a return to power. Announcing the news on Sunday, the Swedish EU presidency warned in a statement that this is not going to mean recognition of the interim government.
"This is an important step in support of the ongoing talks to restore the constitutional order and the democratic process in Honduras, but it does not mean we recognize the de facto government," the statement read, according to RIA Novosti.
The European nations summoned their diplomats from the Central American nation to protest the June 28 military coup that overthrew Zelaya.
Most of the countries, including the US, have asked for the reinstatement of Zelaya as the constitutional President, although there is a wide suspicion that the coup ousting Zelaya was backed and facilitated by the United States.
Zelaya has returned home and has taken refuge at the Brazilian Embassy in the capital Tegucigalpa.
So far no political solution has been found to end the deadlock in the poor country which had been under heavy US influence until Zelaya, the first leftist candidate in decades, was elected president.
