The General Secretariat of the Organization of American States (OAS) and the Government of Honduras today inaugurated the "General Francisco Morazán" room in honor of the hero of Honduras and Central America, in one of the buildings of the hemispheric institution in Washington, D.C.
The Secretary General of the OAS, Luis Almagro, recalled that General Morazán is linked to all of Central America and that he presided over Honduras and the Federal Republic of Central America, which would later separate. "He belonged to the generation of liberals who defended the organization of peoples around republican values, the participation of citizens in defining their destiny, free suffrage, the foundations of our democracies," said Secretary General Almagro.
For his part, the Foreign Minister of Honduras, Lisandro Rosales, highlighted the ideals of Morazán and recalled that the inauguration of the Room coincides with the bicentennial of the independence of Honduras. "General Morazán stood out as a political leader in Central America and throughout his public life he promoted progressive reforms to achieve a society based on universal education, religious freedom and social and political equality," said Foreign Minister Rosales.
The Francisco Morazán room is located in room 704 of the OAS General Secretariat building in Washington, DC.
