She assured that if the Honduran people allow what she considers the kidnapping of the Legislative, in that Power of the State there would be a dictatorship, since it would be controlled by a group that does not respond to the people.

Earlier, Xiomara Castro recognized Congressman Luis Redondo (Salvador Party of Honduras, PSH) as the only president of the National Congress.  In a message disseminated through the social network Twitter, Xiomara Castro expressed: "I recognize the Presidency of Congress headed by Deputy Luis Redondo."
