[19] Note: Although the crisis is ‘officially’ over, and the international community agrees with this, there are still a lot of very pressing problems in Honduras that make it difficult to believe that this turmoil is over. Political tensions between the FNRP and other parties still exists, Zelaya continues with his rhetoric, security problems are imminent especially in the are of organized crime, and the economic repercussions of the crisis continue to be felt.
