The U.S. government said Tuesday it has revoked the diplomatic visas of four Honduran officials, stepping up pressure on coup-installed leaders who insist they can resist international demands to restore the ousted president.
The U.S. State Department did not name the four, but a Honduran official said they included the Supreme Court magistrate who ordered the arrest of ousted President Manuel Zelda and the president of Honduras’ Congress.
The State Department is also reviewing the visas of all officials serving under interim President Roberto Micheletti, department spokesman Ian Kelly said.
Micheletti’s Deputy Foreign Minister Marta Lorena Alvarado said Supreme Court Justice Tomas Arita and Congressional President Jose Alfredo Saavedro were among those whose visas removed.
In other words, Obama’s Administration has revoked the visas of those Honduran officials who, acting in their official capacity, enforced the constitution of Honduras.
Meanwhile, we’re willing to deal with the Iranian thugs who gun down innocent people…
I’d like to say we can’t get any stupider than this, but is only 6 months in to Obama-nation…
