The presidents of Guatemala, El Salvador and Nicaragua Alvaro Colom, Mauricio Funes and Daniel Ortega on Monday decided to halt for 48 hours cross-border trade with Honduras, where a government came to power after a Sunday military coup, Xinhua reported.

The measures were agreed at the summit that brought together the leaders of the Central American Integration System (SICA), the Group of Rio and the Bolivarian Alternative for the Americas (ALBA) on Monday in Nicaraguan capital Managua in support Honduran President Manuel Zelaya, who was forced into exile on Sunday after a military coup.
