Honduras, Interim Government | featured news

Ousted Honduran president Manuel Zelaya tells the BBC why the latest talks with the interim government broke down.

Honduras' de facto government said on Wednesday that talks aimed at ending a deep political crisis following last month's coup have been delayed and it is waiting for new proposals from the mediator.

Negotiations to resolve Honduras' political crisis failed Sunday after representatives of its interim government and ousted President Jose Manuel Zelaya were unable to reach a consensus.

Honduras' interim leader said Wednesday he is willing to step down to help end his country's political crisis, but only if ousted President Manuel Zelaya isn't allowed to regain power.

Honduras' interim government closed its main airport to all flights on Monday after blocking the runway to prevent the return of ousted President Manuel Zelaya.
