Manuel Zelaya says He will Head March against Coup Plotters in Honduras


HAVANA, Cuba, July 21 (acn) Honduras´ constitutional President Manuel
Zelaya announced that he will head a “march of hope” in his country to
overthrow the perpetrators that seized power last June 28 with a
military coup. He called on the people to reach to the borders of his
country and wait for indications by the leadership of the resistance
movement, though he did not give any specific date.

Zelaya said he kicked off his march on Monday and that he will enter
Honduras through any point of its border, according to an interview
published today by the Jesuit Radio Progreso radio station cited by PL
news agency.

In his statements to the radio station the Honduran President alerted
that he has received information from within the armed forces that
oligarchic groups want to kill him and he even thanked the military that
ousted him for their opposition to murder him.

He said that he is not afraid of dying, since he would die in the name
of the principles supporting the fair cause claiming for a change of the
oppressive regime imposed by the voracious oligarchy, whose only
interest is that of preserving its interests.

Zelaya called on the Honduran people to get to the border of the country
and wait for indications by the leadership of the “Frente de Resistencia
Pacífica” (Peaceful Resistance Front), though he did not said when
exactly he would reach the border.

He said he will wait for the 72-hour term given last Sunday by Costa
Rica´s Oscar Arias, mediator in the conflict, in an effort to reanimate
the dialog unsuccessfully held in San Jose after de facto government
representatives rejected the proposals put forth by the mediator.

The Honduran President pointed out that during the rest of his mandate,
which concludes January 27, 2010, he will keep boosting changes in favor
of the poor and participatory democracy, but that he will not stay in
power one more minute after his mandate concludes.

Manuel Zelaya also called on the Honduran military that he considered as
not compromised with the coup thesis in the 21st century to not repress
the people demonstrations against the coup and the de facto government.
