This report examines current conditions in the Honduras as well as issues in US-Honduras relations, in terms of foreign assistance, security cooperation, commercial ties, migration and trafficking in persons. Although the US-Honduras relationship was somewhat strained as a result of the 2009 political crisis in Honduras, close cooperation quickly resumed in 2010. Since then, broad US policy goals in Honduras have included a strengthened democracy with an effective justice system that protects human rights and enforces the rule of law, and the promotion of sustainable economic growth with a more open economy and improved living conditions.
