All European Union member states have recalled their ambassadors to Honduras, in protest against a coup in the country that ousted President Manuel Zelaya, Sweden's Foreign Minister Carl Bildt revealed on his blog on Thursday.

"All EU ambassadors have now left the country," wrote Bildt, whose country took over the six-month rotating presidency of the EU on Wednesday.

The situation in Honduras remained in considerable uncertainty and the EU was discussing the best way to push for a swift return to constitutional rule in the Central American country, Bildt noted.

Honduran President Manuel Zelaya was ousted by the military on Sunday and forced into exile. Most nations and most multilateral organizations in the world have issued statements slamming the coup.
