It is striking that the Organization of American States (OAS) has stated it cannot certify the election results, and that it has called for a new election. We join OAS officials in calling for a new election, one that must be free, fair and transparent. We continue to support the peaceful protests of the Honduran people and urge Honduran security forces to refrain from violence and respect the peoples right to make their voices heard. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
