Honduras: Defeat the military coup - Contra el Golpe de Estado Special section on the coup in Honduras and the resistance movement of workers, students and peasants. In English and Spanish.
Honduras – Seven weeks of unabated resistance despite brutal repression of the coup regime Seven weeks after the coup against Honduran president Mel Zelaya, the national resistance continues to mobilise tens of thousands of workers, youth and peasants in a movement that repression has not been able to smash. Meanwhile diplomatic manoeuvres of all kinds are continuing in attempt to find a “negotiated solution” which saves the coup from being overthrown by a popular insurrection.
Canadian imperialism stands back and watches coup unfold in Honduras Canada has stood almost alone on the international stage, going so far as to say that Zelaya should not return back to Honduras. This should not come as a huge shock for Canadians as the Canadian state has been pursuing an increasingly interventionist role in Latin American affairs for a while now.
Honduras: More pictures of demonstration at Toncontin airport on Sunday Here we publish a picture gallery of the mass demonstration at the Toncontin airport in Tegucigalpa on Sunday when people broke through police lines trying to make sure Zelaya's plane could land. The photographs were taken by a Nicaraguan comrade who travelled to Honduras on Friday as part of a solidarity delegation.
Defeat the reactionary military coup in Honduras: mass mobilisation in the streets and general strike! On 28 June 2009, a US-backed military coup removed the democratically elected president of Honduras Mel Zelaya from power.

Big interest in the ideas of the International Marxist Tendency in Honduras The influence of the International Marxist Tendency (IMT) continues to spread across Latin America. A few days ago a meeting of 60 people from different left groups gathered to hear speakers from the IMT explain the ideas of Marxism and several requested a follow up to this with a programme of political education for trade union members and youth.
