The leader of the European Parliament, Jaime Mayor Oreja, said that “the elections on November 29th are the only hope to save democracy in Honduras.”
Foreign Minister of Honduras, Carlos Lopez Contreras, had visited Europe to strengthen ties of friendship with the region. Mr. López Contreras and Oreja met last week.
The leader questioned the role of the Spanish government regarding the crisis in Honduras. “(It’s) absolutely incomprehensible (that Spain did not send observers) … this political position will only endorse the strategy determined by the Venezuelan President, Hugo Chávez,” said Oreja.
Their belief is that the international community did not understand what happened before June 28th because they lacked information.

I guess it is time for us, as Hondurans, to be diplomatic, since there is no way that those people lacked information, we all know they just chose to see what they wanted to see.
For whoever chooses to believe the information given by International Amnesty and the now infamous Human Rights Organization, any one who obviously prefers to believe what they want to say is simply ignoring facts, and at the same causing a lot of trouble, for they mainly back the groups that are oposing an established government, in total disregard to all the damage and chaos that those rioters bring to a community.
Who can ignore for 4 + 1/2 monts that Zelaya broke Constitutional law?
We anounced it to the world the very same day he was ousted from power.
The USA (Obama & Clinton) chose to not allow delegates from Honduras who were bringing the legal proof that would have avoided the undeserved punishment that they infringed on the Republic of Honduras.
This led to the European Union taking a position that hurt Honduras, for every one knows that those 2 countries, USA and Honduras have had a close friendship and relationship for over 100 years, how could it be that the USA would turn their back on Honduras, unless it had done somtehing terribly wrong?
Nobody stopped to doubt and question America’s actions, no body would have expected an American president to behave like that, I guess the world already forgot about how many leftist dictatorships Jimmy Carter helped establish in his tenure as president, the first time in a long time that the world went upside down due to the irresponsible actions of a man who held so much responsabilty in his hands and chose to ignore that fact, just as Obama did with the Honduras situation.
So, as I put it earlier, it is time now for us to be very diplomatic and play this one very smart, to treat this situation like you would if a misbehaving child suddenly turn good behaved, you should thank him for seeing the wrong of his ways and praise him for changing into better person.
That is what we should do with everybody who is now turning a better eye on Honduras, they are not going to apologize, and if attack them now, they just would turn their back on us out of shame, so it is time to be as smart as we have been courageous.
Lets take advantage of the facts as they are.
The only thing we should be strong about is making sure that Obama & Clinton restore the aid that they stopped and also give us what we did not get, and yes. I do understand that it is gift money at a time when the economy is going through some difficulties, but it is money that we needed back then, we did not deserve for it to be taken away, and we need it even more now, after all the losses we have incurred in.
