New York federal prosecutors have alleged that Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández took bribes from drug traffickers to help export huge shipments of cocaine to the US.
Documents submitted on Friday by prosecutors in the southern district of New York allege Mr Hernandez had the country's armed forces protect a cocaine laboratory and deliveries to the US.
He is quoted in court papers as saying he wanted to "shove the drugs right up the noses of the gringos", referring to Americans.
The president, who has not been charged, has repeatedly denied the claims.
This is going to be fun.
