Finance World News Update by EQUITIES Magazine

Peru has joined the US, Canada, Panama, Costa Rica and Columbia in congratulating Honduran National Party President Porfirio Lobo while Bolivia, Chile, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, and Venezuela refuse to recognize the controversial, coup-run elections.

 

On December 8, the South American trade organization Mercosur announced its "total rejection" of the Honduran elections, stating that they were "carried out in an atmosphere of unconstitutionality, illegitimacy and illegality, dealing a blow to the democratic values of Latin America and the Caribbean."
