Opposition groups called Saturday for more protests to demand that Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández be removed from office after his younger brother was convicted of drug trafficking in a New York court. President Hernández insisted via Twitter that the verdict is not against the state of Honduras, saying his government has fought drug trafficking. On Saturday he attended a parade to honor the country’s armed forces and posted pictures of himself on Twitter smiling alongside the U.S. chargé d’affaires to Honduras, Colleen Hoey.
