TEGUCIGALPA (Reuters) - Honduras' ousted President Manuel Zelaya warned on Friday that negotiations to end a three-month political crisis will collapse unless the coup leaders who toppled him agree to give up power.

As the United Nations Security Council met to discuss the crisis in Honduras and Zelaya's future, the leftist leader overthrown in a June 28 coup said he met with a representative of the de facto government but little progress was made.

He also called on his supporters to come to the capital to pressure the government of de facto leader Roberto Micheletti, who has so far resisted all international demands that he allow Zelaya to return to office.

"We urge the resistance to keep fighting until together the people and president achieve... the fall of the usurpers," Zelaya said. "We see no willingness on the part of the de facto government to reinstate the president."

Just like Zelaya, see did not get what she wanted.

Now he is making "demands" from an obviously weak position, while encouraging supporters to take to the streets.

He'd show some real leadership if he walked out of the embassy.

If he had walked out of that embassy, the coupsters would have taken him into custody. These fuckers are desperate.

...sorry about the Reagan Dems.
