Jorge Colindres and Alex Ugorji agreed that either leading candidate would be favorable to special zones (ZEDEs), with Asfura having stronger institutional support and Nasralla increasingly pro–private sector. Despite legal uncertainty following a Supreme Court ruling, Jorge argued that acquired rights and international treaties—especially the Honduras–Kuwait treaty—protect the ZEDEs, while Alex noted ongoing practical enforcement risks. Both expect a negotiated settlement with the government in 2026, potentially unlocking major investment, and highlighted growing optimism ahead of the Free Cities conference in Prospera next September. - All the Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/FreeCitiesPodcast Free Cities Telegram Community: https://t.me/+im6c6r4jQkUzMjU0 Free Cities Conference: https://freecitiesconference.com/ Free Cities Foundation Newsletter: https://free-cities.org/subscribe Conference Guide to Prague: https://tinyurl.com/FreeCitiesPragueGuide - DONATE Bitcoin to the Free Cities Podcast: bc1q5jun0nzxzqepch84rqk0jnv0rd8uvns28df7mg - Podcasting apps that support Value 4 Value Bitcoin payments: https://podcastindex.org/apps?appTypes=app - NOSTR : Timothy Allen: npub1gcf9ltaeu42f4tr20z3avkas04dezlx3jaudqsuu87gvmh686xasrvqjg0 Free Cities Foundation: npub1lsj8pmgedqqamt89c27tzjjnlf0wn7q7udjm7j2cl9xxz97eacns2mwpee - LEGACY SOCIAL MEDIA : Timothy Allen: https://twitter.com/MrTimothyAllen Free Cities Foundation: https://twitter.com/freecitiesfound - OTHER LINKS : Veritas Villages: https://www.veritasvillages.com/freeci…","meta_description":"This NEWS episode of the Free Cities Podcast reviews Honduras’s unresolved presidential election, with Nasri Tito Asfura (National Party) seen as the like…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":1175,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/free-cities-podcast-5840331/episodes/news-001-updates-on-the-honduran-general-election-zedes/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/free-cities-podcast-5840331/news-001-updates-on-the-honduran-general-election-zedes.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
