On June 28th 2009, the democratically elected President of Honduras, Manuel Zelaya, was overthrown by a military coup, and was taken by force to Costa Rica and then Nicaragua. After two decades, reactionary imperialist forces with the help of a bankrupt and corrupt military establishment once again conducted a coup d'etat against the will of the people of Latin America. 

The illegal military junta is attempting to turn back the clock on the line of progressive measures that Zelaya had taken, which were helping people to improve their standard of living, and were building the confidence of the Honduran people to fight for their rights ~ especially against imperialist domination.

Despite military force, this coup d'etat cannot succeed, as it is up against the social movement for change in Honduras which had already started before this coup. The coup d'etat has provoked worldwide condemnation from Venezuela, Bolivia, Cuba and other Latin American countries, as well as the European Union. The Organization of American States (OAS) has condemned this illegal action and called for the reinstatement of President Zelaya. The coup d'etat regime has been completely isolated, and has no choice but to step down.

Join MAWO for this forum to discuss the overwhelming resistance of the Honduran people to this attack against their progressive movement that has been growing and is continuing to build in the face of repression.
