Voters in Honduras are heading to the polls for a presidential election. The vote occurs under the shadow of a threat from former U.S. President Donald Trump.
Trump has warned that the United States could cut aid to Honduras if his preferred candidate does not win. He did not name the candidate but expressed support for the country's right-wing party.
This statement places international pressure on the democratic process. The outcome of the election could significantly impact future relations and financial support from the United States.
