Opposition broadcasters return to Honduras airwaves

Opposition radio and television stations in Honduras were back on the air after the government lifted a three-week broadcast ban.

Radio Globo and Channel 36 began broadcasting, just hours after interim President Roberto Micheletti’s administration rescinded a decree that limited constitutional guarantees such as freedom of press and freedom of assembly.

Also, a Micheletti representative met with ousted Honduran President Manuel Zelaya after negotiations to solve the country’s three-month old political crisis hit an impasse.

Arturo Corrales, a member of Mr Micheletti’s delegation, said he met with Mr Zelaya “unofficially” because the ousted leader had some questions about the talks. He wouldn’t say what the two discussed.
