Honduras mulling moving embassy to Jerusalem — report
Honduras has dispatched a delegation to Israel that is reportedly exploring the possibility of moving its embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, after secret talks with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
According to the report, Honduras would demand Israel open an embassy in Tegucigalpa and deepen its bilateral trade relationship in exchange.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Emmanuel Nahshon confirms the delegation’s visit, but says only that it is an “ongoing process of discussions that has yet to mature.”
He says the delegation has yet to decide how to proceed.
There is no immediate confirmation from Tegucigalpa.
