San Jose, Costa Rica  - The delegation of the post-coup leader of Honduras, Roberto Micheletti, Sunday rejected a proposed reconciliation plan as unacceptable, prolonging the weeks-long crisis for the Central American Country.

Costa Rican President Oscar Arias Saturday proposed a seven-point plan that includes the formation of a national reconciliation government under ousted President Manuel Zelaya, who would return to Honduras on Friday.

It would also move forward planned elections to October from November and offer political amnesty to those involved in the crisis.

Micheletti's delegation said the proposal would interfere with the internal affairs of his country. Micheletti was designated to head the government after the June 28 coup.

But Zelaya has full backing of Arias and the Organization of American States (OAS) as the rightful president. The OAS has suspended Honduras for its illegal ouster of Zelaya, who was sent into exile in his pajamas several weeks ago.

In Washington, OAS Secretary General Jose Miguel Insulza asked both sides in the talks to respect the 72-hours Arias has asked for, during which time his proposal should be considered.

He called Arias' proposal a "good opportunity" for Tegucigalpa to get out of the political stalemate.

Arias was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1987 for his mediating role in Central America. (dpa)
