Tegucigalpa, Honduras - Hopes were, once again, dashed on Tuesday that the political crisis polarizing this Central American nation will soon come to an end.
An aide to ousted President Manuel Zelaya told reporters Monday night that his camp will not return to negotiations until a "constructive" proposal is submitted by interim president Roberto Micheletti.
At the center of the disagreement is whether Mr. Zelaya should be restored to power after he was arrested and deposed June 28 by the military. Talks have not broken down entirely. But the elusiveness of a solution has further polarized this already divided nation – making it more difficult to come together as both camps battle over which government institution should decide on Zelaya's fate.
This country has largely split along two lines: "golpista" or "golpeada."
It's a play on Spanish words which is intended to mean either one is a coup monger or a victim of the coup.
