    REF: TEGUCIGALPA 405 AND PREVIOUS

    Classified By: Ambassador Hugo Llorens for reasons 1.4 (b & d).

    ¶1. (C) President Manuel &Mel8 Zelaya shared details in a
    June a 7 meeting with the Ambassador, accompanied by the DCM,
    on his negotiations with ALBA members and Cuba over the
    negotiations on Cuba at the Organization of American States
    General Assembly in San Pedro Sula June 2 and 3. Zelaya said
    that his goal on the negotiations was to take everyone's
    interest into account; he said that while the negotiations
    were difficult, he believed that he had met his goal. Zelaya
    praised Secretary Hillary Clinton for her work during the
    General Assembly, adding that he thought that in their second
    and last meeting she had made a very convincing and powerful
    case for the U.S. position, which had impacted greatly on
    him. In fact, he said, that while he and many other OAS
    members quickly realized the value of the U.S. offer to
    support a resolution dropping the Cuba ban as long as it
    included a requirement that Cuba apply for membership and
    that membership be contingent on Cuba adhering to OAS
    principles, convincing fellow ALBA members to accept the text
    had been difficult. Zelaya said that the reason he was
    unable to provide the U.S. delegation with a text the night
    of June 2 was due to ALBA intransience. Zelaya said that he
    spoke with President Hugo Chavez, Daniel Ortega and other
    ALBA members to press them to accept the compromise draft,
    eventually threatening to withdraw Honduras from ALBA if they
    did not agree (please protect). He said that he had told
    Chavez and Ortega that as hosts of the Assembly the lack of
    agreement would be a major disaster for him personally and
    for his government. Zelaya also said that he had made one
    final call to Fidel Castro, who gave his approval of the
    draft. By the morning of June 3, Zelaya said ALBA members
    changed their positions and agreed to accept the draft.

    ¶2. (C) Zelaya also spoke of the difficulty of dealing with
    the ALBA presidents who visited or wanted to visit the
    assembly. Zelaya said that President Daniel Ortega insisted
    on speaking at the inaugural session of the assembly, which
    the GOH controlled. Zelaya said, however, that, true to his
    word to us (reftel), only OAS Secretary General Jose Miguel
    Insulza and he spoke. He said that he offered Ortega instead
    a press conference after the inaugural session, to which
    Ortega eventually agreed. President Rafael Correa, who was
    in Honduras for a bilateral visit before and during the
    visit, also demanded a speaking role and decided not to
    attend the assembly when Zelaya refused. Chavez also pressed
    him for a speaking role, Zelaya said, and in the end did not
    attend.

    ¶3. (C) Comment: Zelaya found himself trapped between his
    desire to please both the U.S. and his ALBA friends at the
    OAS. The need to produce a successful assembly won out,
    however, and Zelaya successfully pressured ALBA to accept our
    text. The Secretary's presence was important, as Zelaya
    wants good relations with the new administration and wanted
    her visit to be successful. Zelaya kept his word to us on
    not allowing any of the ALBA presidents to speak at the
    assembly, at some effort according to his version. We note,
    however, that had he not issued them invitations, he would
    not have had to fend of their speaking requests.
    LLORENS
