Ousted Honduran President Manuel Zelaya will soon leave his country for exile in Mexico. For nearly three months he has been holed up at the Brazilian Embassy in Tegucigalpa.
The situation outside the embassy remains tense as troops continue guarding the surrounding streets. A Mexican government source says Zelaya was expected to arrive on Wednesday night.
The ousted president's chances of returning to power in Honduras received a serious blow last week when the country's Congress voted he could not take office again. The nation voted for Porfirio Lobo as new president in an election on November 29th -- though many countries have yet to recognize the vote.
