Solidarity gathering for the Honduran resistance

On 23 June 2012 on the Iberoamerican Plaza next to Central Station, Sydney, 40 people gathered as a community in solidarity with the people of Honduras against the continued political killings, human rights violations and environmental exploitation that has been driven by an internationally coordinated military coup since 28th June 2009. The coup was to ensure conditions to allow business to do whatever they want without regard for human lives and the environment.

Zelaya briefly returns to Honduras to combat history of US backed coups in Latin America.

On Friday July 24, ousted President Manuel Zelaya crossed into Honduras after coup president Roberto Micheletti refused the terms negotiated by Nobel Peace Prize winner Costa Rican President Oscar Arias this weekend which would have restored Zelaya to power under a reconciliation government. He crossed with hundreds of supporters forming a circle around him in as protection but he had to retreat to avoid bloodshed. The military had blocked many more supporters 10 kilometers before the border.
