The Secretary
General of the Organization of American States (OAS), José Miguel
Insulza, today arrived in Honduras as an official guest to participate
in the ceremonies for the handover of presidential power, to be held
tomorrow
in Tegucigalpa.
Shortly after arriving in Honduras, the chief representative of the
hemispheric Organization was received by the outgoing President,
Porfirio Lobo, who thanked Secretary General Insulza for the support
given by the OAS to Honduras to overcome the political
crisis in the country in 2009, which the Honduran President considered a
pivotal moment in its history. He also expressed his satisfaction with
the work of the Electoral Observation Mission sent by the OAS to the
presidential elections held on
November 24.
For his part, Secretary General Insulza thanked President Lobo for the
trust he placed in the OAS and highlighted the importance of the work of
the outgoing President which, in his view, contributed decisively to
the normalization of political life in the country.
