U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE
Office of the Spokesman
For Immediate Release
The government of Mexico has issued arrest warrants for the capture
of key members of the Zapatista National Liberation Army (EZLN).
These warrants were issued after the discovery and arrest of armed
EZLN cells in Mexico and Veracruz. Although we have no specific
information that acts of terrorism are being planned against
Americans, the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City advises U.S. citizens to
increase their security precautions while in Mexico and to postpone
non-essential travel to Chiapas. U.S. citizens visiting or residing
in Mexico City may contact the U.S. Embassy or any U.S. Consulate
for further security information.
