Preceded by	Manuel Zelaya

Personal details
Born	(1948-09-13) 13 September 1948 (age 76)
Political party	Liberal Party

Roberto Micheletti Bain (born August 13, 1948) is the President of Honduras since June 28, 2009. He is a member of the Liberal Party of Honduras. He has been named president by the National Congress of Honduras during the 2009 Honduran political crisis against president Manuel Zelaya concerning the Honduran constitutional referendum, 2009. In 2008 he sought his party's nomination to run for president in the November 2009 election, but was defeated by Vice President Elvin Ernesto Santos.

With the president absent, the Constitution mandated that the head of Congress, Roberto Micheletti, act as provisional head of state as Vice-President Elvin Ernesto Santos had resigned earlier that year. Micheletti was sworn in by the National Congress on a show of hands on Sunday afternoon 28 June for a term that ends on 27 January 2010. Official reactions from many international leaders are condemning the ouster of President Zelaya, many of them calling for his reinstatement, with Venezuela putting its armed forces on alert. Cuba condemned the action of the Honduran military, National Congress, and judicial branch as a coup d’état.

He had been the President (speaker) of the National Congress of Honduras since January 2006. Although in the same Liberal Party of Honduras as Zelaya, there had been conflict between the two politicians before the military, judicial, and National Congress action against Zelaya.
