Since its establishment the Commission of Truth by the regime of Lobo Sosa, our position has been critical about their legitimacy because instead of being established from extensive consultations with the Honduran society and victims of human rights violations, was implemented so tight, in haste and without meeting all the guarantees of independence and autonomy.
We have also indicated our concern about the possibility that the report of this Committee serves to justify the coup, wash the image of the leaders of the same as they were forced by circumstances to run and legitimize the regime against the international community. These conjectures acquire
realism whenever the information on the report began to leak.
Thus, on 15 March this year, Eduardo Stein, coordinator of the Truth Commission, gave an interview to Radio Nederland in which he anticipates that the most extreme leaders of the country, both conservative and radical sectors, will be disgusted with the contents of the report as "more of the elements involved in this crisis are not the responsibility of one person; not the responsibility of a single group. "
also Stein says Porfirio Lobo has made efforts to show the invalidity of the proceedings in court against former President Zelaya and "that would lead to the return of Honduras to the bosom of the OAS."
Throughout the interview, Stein does not even mention the issue of impunity and gross human rights violations. Talk about the importance of knowing the truth but even hints that the report will be a tool for victims to obtain justice.
With these limited data, the assumptions that we have been drawing on this report and become more relevant information filtered little by little in the media seems to confirm what we have been reporting: that the Commission of Truth and Reconciliation will become an expert body wash flawlessly the first successful coup d'etat of our continent in the XXI century.
