International reaction to the 2009 Honduran coup d'état

International reaction to the 2009 Honduran coup d'état of June 28, 2009, was that the coup was widely repudiated around the globe.[1] The United Nations, every other country in the Western Hemisphere (except Honduras itself) and others, publicly condemned the military-led 2009 Honduran coup d'état and ouster of Honduran President Manuel Zelaya as illegal and most labelled it a coup d'état. The Obama administration, along with all other governments in the hemisphere, branded the action a "coup."[2] Every country in the region, except the United States, withdrew their ambassadors from Honduras. All EU ambassadors were withdrawn from the country.[3] Venezuela said it would suspend oil shipments, and Honduras's neighbors — El Salvador, Guatemala and Nicaragua - stopped overland trade for 48 hours.[4] The World Bank and Inter-American Development Bank paused lending to Honduras.

President Barack Obama of the United States said, "We believe that the coup was not legal and that President Zelaya remains the President of Honduras."[5][6] Amongst the stronger reactions, the President of Venezuela Hugo Chávez pledged to "bring down" any replacement government.[7] Americas-based international organizations such as the Organization of American States, Mercosur, and the Bolivarian Alternative for the Americas have also condemned the events. No foreign government recognized the de facto President Roberto Micheletti.[8]
