The 2009 Honduran coup d'état, part of the 2009 Honduran constitutional crisis, occurred when the Honduran Army on orders from the Honduran Supreme Court ousted President Manuel Zelaya and sent him into exile on 28 June 2009.〔 〕 It was prompted when Zelaya attempted to schedule a non-binding poll on holding a referendum about convening a constituent assembly to rewrite the constitution. After Zelaya refused to comply with court orders to cease, the Honduran Supreme Court secretly issued a warrant for his arrest on 26 June. Two days later, Honduran soldiers stormed the president's house in the middle of the night and detained Zelaya,〔("Honduran leader forced into exile" ), BBC, 28 June 2009; One hundred soldiers: ("Honduran Leader's Populism is what Provoked Military Violence" ), Benjamin Dangl, Alternet, 1 July 2009.

Instead of bringing him to trial, they put him on a military aeroplane which flew him to Costa Rica. Later that day, the Honduran Congress, in an extraordinary session, voted to remove Zelaya from office, after reading a resignation letter whose authenticity was disputed and attributed to President Zelaya,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Esta es la supuesta renuncia de Zelaya )〕 and appointed his constitutional successor, Speaker of Congress Roberto Micheletti, in his place. International reaction to the 2009 Honduran coup d'état was marked by widespread condemnation of the events. The United Nations, the Organization of American States (OAS), and the European Union condemned the removal of Zelaya as a military coup. On 5 July, the OAS, invoking for the first time Article 21 of the Inter-American Democratic Charter voted by acclamation of all member states to suspend Honduras from the organisation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=July 5, 2009 press release posted on oas.org: "The Special General Assembly of the Organization of American States (OAS) decided today to suspend immediately the right to participate in the institution of Honduras following the coup d’Etat that expelled President José Manuel Zelaya from power." )〕 In July 2011, Honduras's Truth Commission concluded that Zelaya broke the law when he disregarded the Supreme Court ruling ordering him to cancel the referendum, but that his removal from office was illegal and a coup. The designation by Congress of Roberto Micheletti as interim president was ruled by the commission as unconstitutional and his administration as a "de facto regime." ==Background== (詳細はウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「2009 Honduran coup d'état」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
