Honduras holds primaries amid corruption claims
AP, TEGUCIGALPA
Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez’s name has kept popping up in the New York trial of an alleged drug trafficker. One of the candidates running to replace him in yesterday’s primary elections has been convicted in the same court of laundering money for the same cartel.
Whoever wins Honduras’ presidency would face a US administration under US President Joe Biden that has already signaled a shift in priorities that would consider issues beyond just immigration in its relationship with the Central American nation.
Yani Rosenthal, fresh off serving a three-year sentence in the US, was running for the nomination of the Liberal Party, his third time as a candidate.
