STATEMENT BY SECRETARY CLINTON
Situation in Honduras
The action taken against Honduran President Mel Zelaya violates the precepts of the Inter-American Democratic Charter, and thus should be condemned by all.

Honduras must embrace the very principles of democracy we reaffirmed at the OAS meeting it hosted less than one month ago.
