Mexico's Democracy: Still a Sham
Adolfo Aguilar Zinser is an independent member of Mexico's Congress and
one of the country's leading critics of government corruption. He sits
on the Investigating Committee CONASUPO, the vast subsidized food program
once headed by Raul Salinas, former President Carlos Salinas' brother
who is now in jail on corruption charges.
Mexico City - The contradiction between President
Ernesto Zedillo's elusive democratic commitments and his authoritarian
resilience have again become evident in his response to the sudden appearance
of the People's Revolutionary Army (EPR), a mysterious group of determined
guerillas responsible for a series of hit-and-run attacks in several Mexican
states.
