US embassy cable - 03TEGUCIGALPA2015

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

1. Editorial in San Pedro Sula-based liberal daily "La Prensa" on 
8/25 entitled "The agenda".  "The fact that the issue of 
narcotrafficking came up during the recent visit of the U.S. 
Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld is undeniable.  What we 
 
SIPDIS 
don't know is the scope of these discussions and the proposals 
presented by Rumsfeld to the Maduro administration." 
 
"Despite the fact that President Maduro denied a future 
installation of an anti-drug base in our territory, there are 
still some doubts in the air, because Secretary Rumsfeld came to 
Honduras after he visited Colombia.  It's evident that the U.S. 
government makes a lot of demands, but doesn't always help to 
achieve what it wants."
