"probably the best that could be expected"

There is this interesting part of the article, not reflected in the headline:

"Mr Micheletti said Zelaya could return to office after a vote in Congress that would be authorised by the country's Supreme Court. "

There is a presidential election November 29, Zelya cannot be a candidate. In any event he won't be pres after Nov. 29.

,i he won't be pres after Nov. 29Unless the deal forced by the US is more onerous than it appears. What did we threaten the constitutional government of Honduras with? And since Honduras is "on our side" threats made behind the scenes would be eminently believable, unlike threats to Iran. Bwing pro American and anti socialist is highly dangerous to a small country, especially if it is clse to the US. .
