OUSTED President Manuel Zelaya said the Honduran people "have the right to insurrection" against the interim government that forced him out of the country.
The remarks appeared to pave the way for a further escalation of the conflict in Honduras, where Mr Zelaya's supporters have staged massive marches demanding his return.
Speaking at a joint news conference in Guatemala City, Mr Zelaya said that Hondurans have the right demonstrate, strike and even rise up against the government of Roberto Micheletti.
