8 signatures so far! [view all signatures] Petitie gecreëerd door: Raisa Bhuiyan On behalf of this petition, I urge youth and adults alike to write letters of concern to their respective Honduran embassies. I hope that by signing this petition, individuals will be motivated to do something about the tense situation that is about to escalate greatly in Honduras. If we act quickly, we'll be able to provoke our diplomats into action before any more deaths have to happen. 8 hebben getekentd totnutoe - help ons om te komen bij 1,000.  We hebben 0.8% bereikt van ons doel. Laten we aan de gang blijven! Sign the petition! Details, Impact and Progress Protests are currently escalating in Honduras with reports of protestors being beaten. Last I heard Nineteen-year-old protestor, Isis Obed Murillo, died from gunshot wounds on Sunday. Honduran President Manuel Zelaya was detained on 28 June by Honduran military personnel and forced into exile. The de facto authorities have refused President Zelaya permission to return to Honduras and his plane was denied entry at Tegucigalpa airport on 5 July. There has been widespread unrest in the country since the coup, with frequent clashes between the military and civilian protestors. The regional assembly of nations, the Organisation of American States, has expelled Honduras as a consequence of the coup and the refusal of those in power to engage in the diplomatic initiatives to seek a negotiated solution to the crisis.
