Desde entonces, el ‘Partido Nacional’ (PN) ha estado constantemente en el poder y a menudo es criticado como autoritario y corrupto. Dada la falta de imperio de la ley y de seguridad jurídica, era poco probable que las elecciones de noviembre de 2017 fueran libres y justas. En efecto, la victoria de Juan Orlando Hernández (JOH), quien ha estado en el poder desde 2014, fue cuestionada por sospecha de manipulación electoral.

  • Financial Policies and Credit Control Techniques in Central America
    Financial Policies and Credit Control Techniques in Central America Eduardo Laso * N EACH OF THE FIVE Central American countries, Costa Rica, I El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua, the sound monetary policies which have in general been pursued in recent years have been helpful in promoting internal and external stability and in ensuring balanced and orderly economic development.1 Since 1950, both agricultural and industrial production have expanded in each of these countries. In several of the countries, the imports of food which formerly were necessary are no longer required, and in normal crop years there now are actually small export surpluses. Social capital has been expanded rapidly. New and better roads have been constructed, more electric power has been produced, and more schools and hospitals have been built since 1950 than in the whole of the preceding 20 years. This expanded social capital will facilitate an even more rapid in- crease of production in the future. These increases in capital investment and in production have been achieved without recourse to inflation. Despite the effects of rising world prices for coffee, the leading export commodity of these coun- tries, upon bank lending and private spending, remarkable stability has been maintained in the cost of living, except in Nicaragua. Such increases as have occurred in prices and the cost of living have been moderate; this attests the soundness of the monetary policies adopted. Moreover, the fact that a rapid rate of development was maintained without undue pressure on the balance of payments shows that the authorities did not forget the importance of external payments equi- librium as a primary objective of monetary policy.

    UNITED NATIONS S Security Council Distr. S/16021 4 October 1983 EKLISH ORIGINAL: SPANISH LETTER DATED 3 OCTOBER 1983 FROM THE PERMANENT REPRESENTATIVE OF HONDURAS To THE UNITED NATIONS ADDRESSED To THE PRESIDENT OF THE SECURITY COUNCIL I have the honour to inform you that, on 29 September 1983, the Constitutional President of the Republic of Honduras, Dr. Roberto Suazo C&dova, wrote to the Presidents of Colombia, Mexico, Panama and Venezuela to ratify the Document of Objectives adopted by the Central American Foreign Ministers at their recent joint meeting in Panama City with the Contadora Group. The text of the letter in question, which has already been brought to the attention of the Permanent Council of the Organization of American States, is attached to this note and it is requested that it be circulated as an official document of the Security Council. In addition, because they provide the background necessary for an understanding of this letter, I am enclosing: (a) the text of the letter which the Constitutional President of Honduras sent on 1 September to the Heads of State and Government of all the countries with which Honduras maintains diplomatic relations, and (b) the text of the presentation made by the Government of Honduras before the Permanent Council of OAS with respect to the threats to peace and security in Central America (Washington, July 1983). The English version of the latter document will be provided as soon as possible for distribution. I should be grateful if the three texts mentioned above could be circulated as official documents of the Security Council, as was done in the case of my letter dated 20 September, which was issued as a Security Council document on 20 September 1983 under the symbol S/15995 and which explains further the peaceful attitude and political will of Honduras.
