Honduras split by two presidents
A military coup has divided Honduras between two leaders – one recognised by world bodies and one backed by the country's congress, courts and military.
Latin American presidents were gathering in Nicaragua yesterday to discuss how to resolve the first coup in Central America in 16 years, while the European Union offered to help start talks between the two sides.
Once again, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez took centre stage, casting the dispute as a rebellion by the region's poor.
There is a deep rift between the outside world – which is clamouring for the return of democratically elected, but largely unpopular and soon-to-leave-office President Manuel Zelaya – and congressionally designated successor Roberto Micheletti.
