The Honduran de facto government announced Friday that it decided to suspend the agreements with Brazil on visas exemption for holders of Brazilian passports.



"All holder of Brazilian passport (ordinary, diplomatic, official or service) from now on will need a visa to enter Honduras," the de facto Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

This stipulation does not affect Brazilian citizens legally living in Honduras, the communiqué added.

The Honduran interim government said it made the decision according to principles of strict reciprocity.

Brazil announced Thursday the suspension of its visa waiver agreement with Honduras, valid since 2004, because it does not recognize the de facto government established after President Manuel Zelaya was ousted by a military coup on June 28.
