| 2009-09-26 |
| [Iran Press TV Latest] Ousted Honduran leader Manuel Zelaya confirms he has entered talks with representatives of the de facto government, saying the talks have not fruitful yet. "They [the talks] have not advanced at all, but they have begun," Zelaya told AlJazeera on Thursday. The deposed leader, who discreetly entered the country and sought sanctuary at the Brazilian Embassy, described the direct talks with the representatives of interim President Roberto Micheletti as positive. However, he underlined that the talks could not be referred to as negotiations. Despite calling the face-to-face talks a positive step, Zelaya remained to be less optimistic about the progress of talks in his interview with a Honduran television station, the Associated Press reported. He told the television station that the interim government left no room for agreement. According to UN officials, the Security Council is due to meet on Friday to discuss the political crisis in the impoverished Central American nation upon the request of Brazil. |
