I'm, again, not aware under the administration of President Orlando Hernandez of statements that have been made to this effect. If they have been made they have not been very well-publicized, and certainly human rights groups have not signalled to me or other partners in the U.S. that the government has made any really positive signals.
Again, I think...quite the contrary. To give another example, that of a colonel in the Bajo Aguan region, who was in charge of forces there, who made threats towards journalists and human rights defenders. That happened as recently as last December in a very public way. He did so on television. He accused one human rights defender from the organization Rights Action, which is involved in helping campesino groups present their cases, their claims to land, before the courts in Honduras. She was accused of destabilization and she was also accused of having ties to al-Qaeda. This was done very publicly in a part of Honduras where there are frequent assassinations of human rights defenders and others. So it was very dangerous behaviour and this human rights defender returned to the United States fairly quickly after these remarks were made. These remarks were, of course, criticized by human rights defenders throughout Honduras.
