Zelaya Issues Ultimatum on Reinstatement
----------------------------------------



Honduran President Manuel Zelaya is threatening to end mediation talks
with the coup government that overthrew him unless he’s reinstated by
the end of the week. Zelaya and the installed Honduran president Roberto
Micheletti both visited Costa Rica for talks last Thursday. Costa Rican
President Oscar Arias said he hopes to hold further meetings in the next
eight days. Speaking from Nicaragua, Zelaya issued an ultimatum calling
on the coup regime to step down after the next round of talks.
