U.S. envoys meet Zelaya, de facto leader in Honduras

TEGUCIGALPA (Reuters) - Honduras' post-coup rulers invited ousted President Manuel Zelaya to fresh talks after a high-level U.S. delegation pressured both sides on Wednesday to resume negotiations to resolve the crisis.

The U.S. team, led by Assistant Secretary of State Tom Shannon and Dan Restrepo, the White House's special assistant for Western Hemisphere affairs, arrived on Wednesday for a last-ditch effort to broker a resolution to the impasse that has left the Central American country diplomatically isolated since Zelaya's army-backed overthrow.
