U.S. decides not to impose sanctions

In an apparent softening of its stance, the U.S. has decided not to impose sanctions on Honduras for ousting President Manuel Zelaya. This might be a sign that it is backpedaling on its rhetoric insisting that Mel Zelaya be returned to the presidency. This is an issue for the Hondurans to decide and neither the U.S. nor any other foreign government (i.e. Venezuela) should meddle in that country's internal business.
