Nicaragua Not To
Recognize Honduran Government
By Associated
Press
MANAGUA - President Daniel Ortega says
his government will not recognize the
authority of newly inaugurated President
Porfirio Lobo in Honduras, but Nicaragua
will maintain economic and trade relations
with the neighboring country.
Lobo has been scrambling since his
inauguration last week to restore diplomatic
relations with the international community.
Honduras was cut off from foreign aid in
June after then-President Manuel Zelaya was
forced into exile, cutting short his term.
Ortega said Saturday night that he had no
reason to believe that those who forced
Zelaya out of office were no longer in
power.
"We feel threatened," said Ortega.
