US embassy cable - 05TEGUCIGALPA1641

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. PolChief discussed Honduran attendance at the upcoming UN 
General Assembly (UNGA) with Honduran Foreign Minister Mario 
Fortin August 4.  The discussion followed Acting PolChief's 
demarche on the same subject with MFA Acting Director General 
(A/DG) of Foreign Relations Alan Javier Oviedo Garcia July 8. 
 
2. Fortin noted that the Central American Presidents/Foreign 
Ministers would be very busy September 11-15 with the 
following Central American summits: 
- September 11-12 with Korean President/FM in Costa Rica, and 
- September 13 with Brazilian President/FM in Guatemala, 
 
as well as Central American Independence Day on September 15. 
 As such, Honduran President Ricardo Maduro had not yet 
decided if he would attend UNGA.  FM Fortin plans to attend 
UNGA, but his itinerary is dependent on President Maduro's 
plans. 
 
3. Fortin promised to inform the Embassy once the GOH's 
attendance at UNGA was decided.
