Esteban Moctezuma Barragán (b. October 21, 1954 in Mexico City) is a Mexican politician affiliated to the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI). He is a former senator and served as secretary of social development and secretary of the interior in the cabinet of President Ernesto Zedillo Ponce de León. From that position, early in January 1995, he sponsored peace talks in Chiapas with the Zapatista Army of National Liberation (EZLN) insurgents; later on, he was active in the San Andres Accords (''Los Acuerdos de San Andrés'') to promote Constitutional Reforms on behalf of indigenous autonomy. Esteban Moctezuma is considered by some as an important advocate for the Mexican Government’s pacific solution with the EZLN. During the 1995 Zapatista Crisis, since he organized a creative strategy that demonstrated, then, Subcomandante Marcos's natural pacifist tendencies and the terrible consequences of a military solution. He achieved, under adverse conditions, a difficult and improbable reestablishment of peace talks between the Mexican Government and the EZLN. == Political background in Mexico == The previous months to Ernesto Zedillo’s presidential inauguration, a wave of political motivated assassinations happened in Mexico; this included personalities such as: Cardinal Juan Jesús Posadas Ocampo; front runner presidential candidate Colosio of the PRI that Zedillo replaced as candidate for the election; José Francisco Ruiz Massieu, Secretary-General of the PRI, and brother-in-law of President Carlos Salinas de Gortari. So with the purpose to giving credibility to the investigations of those political crimes, and grant a “healthy distance”, President Zedillo appointed Antonio Lozano Gracia, a member of the opposition political party PAN, as Attorney General of Mexico With the purpose of promoting a different political agenda, this commission tuned the Law Procedures in a systematic opposition of the Due Process and Justice. This caused serious problems to the Interior Government of President Zedillo that originated among others the 1995 Zapatista Crisis. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Esteban Moctezuma」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
