US also recognized the Honduras coup, although not as speedily as this one and articles below explain why......
"The former head of the Maldives criticized the United States on Friday for recognizing the Indian Ocean nation's new government, which he says came to power in a coup."

Former Maldives president criticizes US
And gee what is being said about this coup:
"Both the United States and India quickly recognized the new coup regime as legitimate. In stark contrast, in 1988, a coup attempt against the Gayoom dictatorship was quickly put down by invading Indian troops that reinstalled Gayoom's hated regime."

Oppose the U.S. Backed Coup in the Maldives!
"Top officials in Washington supported the political aims of the coup. They did not nominally support the means of the coup, as far as we know, but they supported its political end: the removal of the ability of President Zelaya and his supporters to pursue a meaningful reform project in Honduras. On the other hand, they were politically constrained not to support the coup openly, since they knew it to be illegal and unconstitutional. Thus, they pursued a "diplomatic compromise," which would "restore constitutional order" while achieving the coup's central political aim: removal of the ability of President Zelaya and his supporters to pursue a meaningful reform project in Honduras. The effect of their efforts at "diplomatic compromise" was to allow the coup to stand, a result that these supporters of the coup's political aims were evidently content with."
