“I raise with you, in your character of OAS secretary-general, the formal complaints of my government and the Honduran people about … the manifest ambiguity and contradiction of the government of the United States of America,” Zelaya said in a letter to Jose Miguel Insulza.

He said that the United States and other, unnamed countries are “using ambiguous and imprecise positions.”

“On one hand, they recognize my government, nevertheless, on the other hand, they ignore our positions and the OAS and U.N. resolutions (demanding Zelaya’s reinstatement) and heed the instructions of the de facto regime (in Tegucigalpa),” the letter said.

Zelaya, holed up at the Brazilian Embassy in Tegucigalpa since slipping back into the country Sept. 21, went on to recount how soldiers stormed his residence “with guns blazing,” dragged him out and put him on a plane to Costa Rica, while a plurality of Congress fabricated a “resignation” and the Honduran Supreme Court ordered his arrest on trumped-up charges.

“This has been condemned and characterized by every country in the world as a violent and unexpected rupture of the democratic order, a military coup d’etat,” the missive to Insulza said.
