Parliament's resolution on the Honduran presidential election recognises Nasry Asfura as the legitimate president-elect and urges the incumbent administration to accept the CNE's results and ensure a peaceful transfer of power. It condemns the vote recount attempts and the attack on opposition lawmaker Gladys Aurora López, and calls on the EU to help Asfura take office on 27 January 2026.
