The government, which took power after a June 28 coup, denied entry to an Organization of American States delegation seeking to broker a solution to the crisis, but an OAS representative later left open the possibility of talks. The moves were aimed at cracking down on opposition and sending a clear message that it would not allow the leftist Zelaya's return to power. But the measures will likely bring further international condemnation. Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said he would ignore a 10-day deadline set by de facto leader Roberto Micheletti to decide on the fate of Zelaya, who is holed up with family and supporters in Brazil's embassy in the capital. "Brazil will not comply with an ultimatum from a government of coup mongers," Lula told reporters at a summit of African and South American leaders in Venezuela. Lula also demanded an apology from Micheletti, but the government instead warned that Brazil would lose its right to have an embassy in Honduras if it ignores the deadline. Zelaya was overthrown in a military coup on June 28, but he secretly returned from exile last Monday, sparking a tense standoff with the de facto civilian government that has promised to arrest him on charges of treason. Hundreds of soldiers and riot police have surrounded the embassy all week, while protesters have mounted almost daily marches to demand Zelaya be reinstated. The government responded Sunday by issuing a decree allowing it to suspend freedom of speech, ban protests and suspend broadcasting rights for media groups, citing "disturbances of the peace." Two local media groups critical of the government -- Radio Globo and Cholusat Sur -- have already been taken off the air several times since the coup. Brazil has said Zelaya can stay as long as necessary, but Micheletti's government has said either it grant the deposed president asylum or hand him over for prosecution. "We urge the Brazilian government to define the status of Mr. Zelaya in a period of no more than 10 days," it said. "If not, we will be obliged to take additional measures." Foreign Minister Carlos Lopez said the embassy's sovereignty would be respected and there were no plans to raid it, but he faulted Brazil for escalating the crisis by agreeing to house Zelaya. "The Lula government is to blame," he said. He said the OAS delegation was denied entry because it had been warned not to come yet. The OAS accused the de facto government of blocking a peaceful solution to the crisis. But speaking to Reuters, OAS envoy John Biehl said a group of foreign ministers from the region could still visit Honduras this week in an attempt to broker talks between Zelaya and de facto government officials.
