In response, Micheletti has sworn that he will arrest Zelaya if he sets foot in the country and that he is ready for anything Venezuela - or anyone else - can throw at him. With neither side showing signs of compromise, the risk of a violent clash rises - a prospect that worries many in Tegucigalpa.
