TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras (AP) - Honduras' foreign secretary on Tuesday ordered 211 Chileans who came to the Honduran capital to be trained by a U.S. company for service as security guards in Iraq to leave the country in the next three days.
The Chileans arrived on Sept. 8 for small-arms and self-defense training at Your Solutions, which has an instruction facility in Lepaterique, 20 miles (30 kilometers) north of Tegucigalpa, the capital.

But the constitution prohibits security and military training for foreigners on Honduran soil and Foreign Secretary Daniel Ramos said authorities had decided to revoke the 30-day tourist visas the Chileans used to enter the country.

"The foreigners better leave the country, Friday at the latest," he said at a news conference. "If not, we will be forced to take more serious measures."
