Pada Minggu pagi, [[28 Juni]] [[2009]], Zelaya digulingkan lewat sebuah [[Kudeta|kudeta militer]] dan ditahan menjelang [[referendum]] di negara itu. Ia digulingkan ketika pasukan membangunkannya saat masih dalam keadaan berpiama. Kemudian, dia diterbangkan ke [[San Jose, Kosta Rika|San Jose]], [[Kosta RicaRika]]. Beberapa jam kemudian, Kongres melantik [[Konggres Honduras|Ketua Kongres Honduras]], [[Roberto Micheletti]] sebagai presiden sementara. Ini adalah kudeta pertama di Honduras sejak 16 tahun lalu.

Zelaya lahir sebagai anak keempat di [[Catacamas]], [[Olancho]] dari sebuah keluarga yang terdidik politik. <!--He has a brother called Carlos, while his mother has been described as his best campaigner. He attended the public National Honduran University (UNAH), but did not graduate, engaging instead in business activities, and specifically [[timber]] and [[cattle]]. He is a landowner in Olancho (a Department in Honduras) who has worked his own property as a rancher. In June [[1975]] his family were suspected of involvement in the murder of two priests on their land in Olancho, one from the [[United States]] and the other from [[Colombia]] though Zelaya has always strongly denied any involvement.-->

Ia mengikuti pendidikan di Universitas Nasional Honduras tetapi tidak lulus. Ia mempunyai seorang saudara laki-laki yang bernama Carlos, sementara ibunya digambarkan sebagai juru kampanyenya yang terbaik. Ia kemudian menjadi insinyur sipil dan menjadi pemilik tanah di Olancho. Ia pernah menjadi deputi di Kongres Nasional Honduras selama 3 masa jabatan berturut-turut antara [[1985]] hingga [[1998]]. Ia menjabat berbagai posisi di dalam PLH dan menjadi Menteri Investasi yang bertanggung jawab atas Dana Investasi Sosial Honduras (FHIS) pada pemerintahan PLH sebelumnya. Pada masa pemerintahan [[Carlos Roberto Flores]] Zelaya memperkenalkan ''Program kabupaten terbuka'' untuk mendesentralisasikan proses pengambilan keputusan dan mengembailkan kekuasaan kepada komunitas lokal. Ia menggunakan pembagian resmi menurut [[Kabupaten Honduras|kabupaten]] dan metode lainnya yang mengkategorikan rakyat menurut komunitas [[pribumi]] atau tradisional mereka. Dengan kategorisasi tersebut ia menciptakan 297 kelompok dan ia merencanakan untuk menghidupkan kembali skema ini begitu ia menjadi Presiden.

Selama kampanye pemilu Zelaya berjanji untuk melipatgandakan jumlah polisi dari 9.000 menjadi 18.000 orang. Ia juga berjanji untuk memulai program [[pendidikan|pendidikan kembali]] di antara gang-gang [[Mara Salvatrucha]]. Dalam masalah ini pendekatannya sangat berbeda dengan pendekatan saingannya Pepe Lobo, yang menganjurkan [[hukuman mati]] untuk kelompok-kelompok penjahat ini, sehingga membuat media Honduras menggambarkan negaranya harus memilih antara rekonsilitasi atau konfrontasi.

During the election campaign Zelaya promised to double police numbers from 9,000 to 18,000. He also promised to initiate a programme of [[education|re-education]] amongst the [[Mara Salvatrucha]] gangs. In this question his approach was very different from that of his main rival Pepe Lobo, who advocated the [[death penalty]] for these groups of delinquents, leading the Honduran media to describe the country as having chosen reconciliation over confrontation.

His governemt has been described as fragile and while he is widely considered a very capable individual the problems his government is facing from delincuency, corruption and poverty are overwhelming. The dominanat theme of his governemt has been the licitation organised by the government to try and reduce the cost of [[petroleum]] in Honduras. This has resulted in a closening of ties between [[Venezuela]] and Honduras. The cancelling of all visa applications on friday [[June 16]], [[2006]] by the [[United States]] [[Embassy]], although ostensibly for a case of corruption involving the Honduras Migration, the Registro Nacional de las Personas (People National Registry Office), which issues the National Identification Card, has been seen by many as observers as a way of the US governemnt to try and pressure Honduras into not developing closer relations with Venezuela and its President [[Hugo Chávez]]. The US Embassy in Honduras renewed the process of appointments for visa applications on Monday [[June 26]], [[2006]].
