Latin America still divided over coup in Honduras
No longer is the ousted Honduran president hiding out in an embassy compound, and no longer is the man who replaced him thumbing his nose at the world.
But a year after one of the most unusual coups in Central American history played out in Honduras, it continues to divide Latin America and pose an unrelenting challenge to the Obama administration's goals in the region. And despite months of crisis negotiations and halting compromises, the Honduran political standoff will still haunt a meeting of the Organization of American States that opens on Sunday in Peru.
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, who favors restoring Honduras to the regional body, is likely to encounter vociferous criticism from her counterparts in Latin America who do not yet recognize the new Honduran government.
