Zelaya renounces restitution to presidency (letter to Obama).

[rabs]

Short and to the point letter to Obama was released today to media in Teguz.

Z. is telling Obama that it is too late for Z's restitution and that to accept it at this late date would amount to being an accomplice in the gorilettis golpe.

"In my condition as president elect by the Honduran people, (I) reaffirm my decision that as of this date, whatever the case may be, I DO NOT ACCEPT, any accord for a return to the presidency, to cover up the coup d' etat."

In remarks to Radio Globo, the leader reiterated his decision. "It is a firm measure of not accepting at this time any restitution that humilates the Honduran people (by) hiding the illegality in which we are living and the military repression which the most humble Hondurans are under."

"En mi condición de Presidente electo por el pueblo Hondureño, reafirmo mi decisión que a partir de esta fecha cualquiera que fuera el caso, YO NO ACEPTO, ningún acuerdo de retorno a la presidencia, para encubrir el golpe de Estado", señala la misiva.

En unas declaraciones a radio Globo, el mandatario reiteró su decisión: "Es una disposición firme de no aceptar ya ninguna restitución que humille al pueblo hondureño ocultando la ilegalidad en que vivimos y la represión militar a que está sometido el pueblo más humilde", dijo.
