  • Honduran President **Xiomara Castro** has threatened to **reassess military cooperation** with the US if President Trump proceeds with mass deportations.
  • The **Soto Cano Airbase**, housing over 1,000 US personnel, is crucial for operations in Central America, but faces criticism for its historical ties to regional conflicts.

  • Experts view the threat as more of a **negotiating tactic** rather than an immediate shift, considering Honduras's economic reliance on US remittances.
  • The situation could lead to **strained US-Honduras relations**, especially under a Republican administration, as the US may increase pressure on Honduras's military stance.
