Brazilian Foreign Minister Celso Amorim disagreed with the U.S. ambassador to the UN, where the situation in Honduras was discussed , while the Workers Party of President Lula da Silva, considered 'warm' Washington's position. These were the reviews of the information portal of Latin American news agency ANSA. The Brazilian press, said ANSA, reported Saturday on a discussion between the Foreign Minister Celso Amorim and U.S. Ambassador to the UN, Susan Rice, about the diplomatic efforts on the tension in the Central American country.
Susan Rice told Amorim she disagreed with Brazil for calling a meeting of the Security Council of the UN to address the situation in Honduras, including military hostility against the Brazilian embassy, where he has taken refuge since Monday, the legitimate president of this country Manuel Zelaya, deposed by a military coup led by businessman Roberto Micheletti.
While Brazilian Rice dismissed the concern, the diplomatic delegation of Brazil was attacked yesterday with suspected toxic gases and from Monday remains surrounded by a military cordon that restricts the entry of visitors. Amorim Meanwhile, in his address to the Security Council, warned of a possible attempted invasion of the embassy. Amorim replied Rice saying 'if the U.S. embassy ( would have been harassed) you would be very angry'.'This is not the place (UN Security Council) suitable for this type of presentation' Rice told Amorim, during a private conversation occurred in the Crystal Palace of the UN, published today in Sao Paulo State.
