"I commend the President of Honduras, Nasry Asfura - a strong leader with values and principles - for his decision to designate Hamas and Iran’s Revolutionary Guards as terror organisations.

This is another important reinforcement in the global campaign against terrorism, which endangers security throughout the world, including in Latin America," he wrote.

The move adds Honduras to a growing list of countries taking action against groups designated as terrorist organisations.

Earlier, the Dominican Republic also designated the IRGC and Hezbollah as terrorist organisations.
