BOLETIN DE PRENSA

24 de septiembre 2024

  • Con los mismos argumentos del “progreso” y “desarrollo” del PRI y el PAN, el gobierno obradorista ha encabezado el despojo y la destrucción de territorios indígenas en el sur-sureste mexicano.
  • Ante restricciones ambientales en EUA, empresas chinas, canadienses y estadounidenses promueven red de gasoductos en México. La energía fósil a bajo costo, extraído con fracking en EUA, aumenta los riesgos en el Golfo de México y comunidades del sureste.
  • La nueva colonización interna: organizaciones, comunidades, pueblos y barrios del Sur/sureste mexicano denuncian reordenamiento territorial a favor de grandes capitales nacionales y transnacionales.
  • Denuncian la imposición de 12 parques industriales en territorios indígenas del Istmo de Tehuantepec como parte del Corredor Interoceánico. Reconfiguración y transformación del paisaje amenaza comunidades ancestrales.
  • Continúa la destrucción con mando militar en el megaproyecto interconectado “Tren Maya – Corredor Interoceánico”. Se suman hoteles militares en Áreas Naturales Protegidas mientras desplazamientos, violencia y crimen organizado van al alza.

Pressemitteilung/Statement

24. September 2024

  • Mit denselben Argumenten des „Fortschritts“ und der „Entwicklung“ der PRI und der PAN hat die Regierung Obrador die Enteignung und Zerstörung indigener Gebiete im Süd-Südosten Mexikos vorangetrieben.
  • Angesichts der Umweltauflagen in den USA fördern chinesische, kanadische und US- amerikanische Unternehmen ein Netz von Gaspipelines in Mexiko. Die kostengünstige, fossile Energie, die durch Fracking in den USA gewonnen wird, erhöht die Risiken im Golf von Mexiko und in den Gemeinden im Südosten.
  • Die neue interne Kolonisierung: Organisationen, Gemeinden, Völker und Nachbarschaften im Süden/Südosten Mexikos prangern die territoriale Neuordnung zugunsten des nationalen und transnationalen Großkapitals an.
  • Sie prangern die Errichtung von 12 Industrieparks in indigenen Territorien im Isthmus von Tehuantepec im Rahmen des Interozeanischen Korridors an. Die Neugestaltung und Umgestaltung der Landschaft bedroht die angestammten Gemeinschaften.
  • Die Zerstörung geht unter militärischem Kommando im Rahmen des zusammenhängenden Megaprojekts „Tren Maya – Interozeanischer Korridor“ weiter. Militärhotels werden in Naturschutzgebieten errichtet, während Vertreibung, Gewalt und organisierte Kriminalität zunehmen.

Press Release/Statement

24 September 2024

  • With the same arguments of ‘progress’ and ‘development’ of the PRI and the PAN, the obradorist government has led the dispossession and destruction of indigenous territories in the Mexican south-southeast.
  • Faced with environmental restrictions in the US, Chinese, Canadian and US companies are promoting a network of gas pipelines in Mexico. Low-cost fossil energy, extracted by fracking in the US, increases risks in the Gulf of Mexico and communities in the southeast.
  • The new internal colonisation: organisations, communities, peoples and neighbourhoods in the South/Southeast of Mexico denounce territorial reordering in favour of large national and transnational capital.
  • They denounce the imposition of 12 industrial parks on indigenous territories in the Isthmus of Tehuantepec as part of the Interoceanic Corridor. Reconfiguration and transformation of the landscape threatens ancestral communities.
  • The destruction continues under military command in the interconnected mega-project ‘Mayan Train – Interoceanic Corridor’. Military hotels are added in Natural Protected Areas while displacement, violence and organised crime are on the rise.

European and Mexican laws promote war in Chiapas

source (german written): https://www.cafe-libertad.de/bewaffneter-angriff-auf-zapatistische-kooperative

The Zapatista coffee cooperative Yochin Tayel Kinal reported to us on the night of May 1st that their warehouse in Altamirano, Chiapas, had been attacked by paramilitaries in the previous days. The front door of the warehouse, where green coffee is also processed, was broken down and shots were fired inside. The compas were able to take cover behind coffee sacks and flee. The armed attack on the harvest of small farmers and a communal production facility of the indigenous community is a further expression of the increasing escalation in southern Mexico. This makes solidarity and direct support for the new Zapatista self-government structures and autonomy all the more important

More than two thousand years ago, the war between empires for the acquisition of land, natural resources, and geostrategic trade sites, was based on the conquest of territories and the creation of borders. This was always done at the expense of the destruction of cultures and the blood of indigenous peoples.
