Honduran National Front of Resistance to the Coup Celebrates restoration of Zelaya!
Communiqué No. 32
The National Front of Resistance to the Coup
d’Etát, facing the imminent signing of a negotiated agreement between the
commission representing the legitimate President Manuel Zelaya Rosales and the
representatives of the de facto regime, communicates the following to the
Honduran people and the international community:
1. We celebrate the
upcoming restoration of President Manuel Zelaya Rosales as a popular victory
over the narrow interests of the coup oligarchy. This victory has been obtained
through four months of struggle and sacrifice by the people who, in spite of
the savage repression unleashed by the repressive forces of the state in the
hands of the dominant class, have been able to resist and grow in their levels
of consciousness and organization and turn themselves into an irrepressible
social force.
2. The signing on the part
of the dictatorship of the document which mandates “returning the holder of
executive power to its pre June 28 state,” represents the explicit
acceptance that in Honduras there was a coup d’état that should be dismantled
in order to return to institutional order and guarantee a democratic framework
in which the people can exercise their right to transform society.
3. We demand that the
accords signed at the negotiating table be processed in an expedited fashion by
the National Congress. We alert all our comrades at the national level so that
they can join the actions to pressure for the immediate compliance with the
contents of the final document from the negotiating table.
4. We reiterate that a
National Constituent Assembly is an unrenounceable aspiration of the Honduran
people and a non-negotiable right for which we will continue struggling in the
streets, until we achieve the re-founding of our society to convert it into one
that is just, egalitarian and truly democratic.
