Honduras: A Violence, Repression and Impunity Capital of the World
There is no end in sight to violence and repression in Honduras. There is also no end in sight to American and Canadian governments and business maintaining political, economic and military relations with the country’s military-backed regime. Since the June 2009 military coup, that ousted the country’s democratically-elected government, Honduras has been referred to as the ‘murder capital’ of the world, a ‘journalist killing’ capital of the Americas, an ‘LGBT killing capital’, a ‘prisoner killing capital’, and a ‘lawyer killing capital.’
