President of Honduras seeks re-election

Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez said Sunday he will seek re-election in 2017, reigniting debate on a single-term limit that has deeply divided the country and led to a previous president’s ouster.

“I am going to be the next president of Honduras,” Hernandez said triumphantly in a speech to some 10,000 supporters at a baseball stadium east of the capital Tegucigalpa.
