AI Summary
This bill, known as the "Honduras Obstinately Neglects Defense and Risks Alienating Security Act" (HONDURAS Act), provides authorization for the President to suspend all assistance to the Government of the Republic of Honduras following the redeployment of U.S. military and civilian personnel from Soto Cano Air Base. The suspension of assistance would occur if Honduras refuses or is unwilling to host U.S. personnel, and would cover all forms of aid, including those outlined in the original 1954 bilateral military assistance agreement between the United States and Honduras and any subsequent amendments to that agreement. The bill effectively creates a mechanism to withhold U.S. financial and military support from Honduras as a consequence of the country's potential non-cooperation with U.S. military presence, signaling a potential diplomatic and strategic response to changes in the bilateral relationship between the two nations.
