D.R., Honduran President-Elect Agree on Zelaya Exit
---------------------------------------------------



The incoming Honduran government has signed an accord calling for the
exit of the ousted President Manuel Zelaya. On Wednesday,
President-elect Porfirio Lobo reached a deal that would grant Zelaya
safe passage to the Dominican Republic. Zelaya has taken refuge in the
Brazilian embassy since returning to Honduras in September. Lobo was
elected in a November race boycotted by Zelaya supporters. Zelaya says
he will review the safe passage deal before giving his assent.
