In Honduras, opposing sides of the coup that overthrew President Manuel Zelaya took to the streets Tuesday as Hondurans marked their national independence day. Speaking to supporters, the head of the coup government, Roberto Micheletti, said only a foreign invasion could bring Zelaya’s return to Honduras. Meanwhile, thousands of Zelaya supporters held a rally for the restoration of democratic government.

Protester: “We want the return of democracy in Honduras and want the President to return to our country. He was taken out by force, and we Hondurans elected him, and it’s not fair what [Micheletti] has done, taking him out by force.”
