Hola G

I can't see where this sentence is coming from as there is nothing tagged, but I can tell you that we also use the verb "llamar" in this way, as in meaning to "refer to something/someone in a way":

llamar algo a algo/a alguien

Here are some examples:

So, both to refer to people and to things, you need "a" in front of them:

Llamo a mi vecina...

Llamo a la cuchara...

In the case of that sentence about Honduras, the same structure is being used, although in that case, we can see a "se passive" form, but the "a" is still there:

As I said, I am not seeing it in context but it looks like it is using that specific structure with llamar.

I hope it helps.

Saludos
