Guatemala and Honduras clash over UN role in security crisis
Guatemala denies engaging with the OAS while claiming U.N. action is separate. Honduran delegate Tiburcio Carias Jr. rejects guilt and says Honduras complies with U.N. resolutions. The Security Council cited violence after its urgent Sunday meeting as bases in member states allegedly fueled aggression. The Soviet Union vetoed a Colombia Brazil bid to send Guatemala’s complaint to the OAS. Guatemala, not a UN member, could ask for a meeting but shows reluctance to align with Soviet support as it denies being Communist. No immediate move toward an early meeting was pushed by council members.
