HONDURAS: Lobo launches truth commission
President Porfirio Lobo presided over a ceremony on 4 May
inaugurating a truth commission to investigate events before, during and after
the coup which toppled Manuel Zelaya last June. Domestically, the Frente de
Resistencia, which supported Zelaya, organised several well-attended marches to
coincide with Labour Day to protest against the commission. Internationally, the
US is at odds with most of South America over allowing Honduras back into the
Organization of American States (OAS).
