[:es]A los pueblos de México y del mundo.
El Concejo Indígena de Gobierno- Congreso Nacional Indígena repudiamos el cobarde ataque de integrantes del grupo paramilitar llamado Organización Regional de Cafeticultores de Ocosingo (ORCAO), que el pasado sábado 22 de agosto alrededor de las 11:00 de la mañana robaron y quemaron las instalaciones del Centro de Comercio Nuevo Amanecer del Arcoiris, que se encuentra ubicado en el sitio conocido como crucero de Cuxuljá, Municipio Autónomo Lucio Cabañas, dentro del municipio oficial de Ocosingo, Chiapas.
La organización paramilitar ORCAO ha mantenido desde hace años una presión y violencia constante sobre las comunidades zapatistas; como es el caso del Municipio Autónomo Moisés Gandhi, para detener la organización autónoma, privatizar las tierras que han costado la lucha y organización de los pueblos originarios bases de apoyo zapatistas, para amedrentar y amenazar a las y los compañer@s que desde abajo vamos apostando por la esperanza, como las diversas agresiones en contra de compañeros del Congreso Nacional Indígena, que fueron violentados y secuestrados por paramilitares de ORCAO, los Chinchulines y gente del partido MORENA.
Denunciamos la guerra que, desde arriba, se está desplegando en contra de la organización de las comunidades zapatistas, al mismo tiempo que arriba los malos gobiernos buscan imponer, por todo el país, mega proyectos de muerte a los que nos oponemos y nos opondremos, porque no estamos dispuestos a renunciar a nuestros territorios y permitir la destrucción que prometen los poderosos.
Hacemos responsables de estos hechos a la organización paramilitar ORCAO, al partido MORENA, al gobierno del estado y al gobierno federal, que no han dejado de sembrar la violencia en la región con el fin de golpear no solo a nuestras hermanas y hermanos de las comunidades bases de apoyo del EZLN, sino a todos los pueblos que soñamos la lucha por la vida, con sanar a nuestra madre tierra y no dejar que se privatice, que no regresen nunca más los patrones capitalistas y los malos gobiernos a los territorios autónomos zapatistas y que esa luz siga floreciendo en los territorios de los pueblos originarios del CNI- CIG y toda la humanidad.
Hacemos un llamado a las y los compañer@s de redes de apoyo y redes de resistencia y rebeldía a pronunciarnos y movilizarnos contra la guerra de exterminio, que se agudiza peligrosamente en contra de nuestras hermanas y hermanos de los pueblos zapatistas, que nos enseñan a nunca dejar de sembrar rebeldía y esperanza.
Atentamente
Por la reconstitución integral de nuestros pueblos

The Indigenous Government Council-Indigenous National Congress repudiate the cowardly attack by members of the paramilitary group called the Regional Organization of Coffee Growers of Ocosingo (ORCAO), who on Saturday August 22 around 11:00 in the morning robbed and burned the facilities from the Nuevo Amanecer del Arcoiris Trade Center, which is located in the place known as the Cuxuljá crossroad, Lucio Cabañas Autonomous Municipality, within the official municipality of Ocosingo, Chiapas.
The paramilitary organization ORCAO has maintained constant pressure on and violence against the Zapatista communities for years; as is the case of the Moises Gandhi Autonomous Municipality, to stop the autonomous organization and to privatize the lands that have cost the struggle and organization of the original peoples, who are Zapatista support bases. They have intimidated and threatened the compañeros and compañeras that from below bet on hope, such as the various attacks against compañeros of the National Indigenous Congress, who were violated and kidnapped by paramilitaries from ORCAO, the Chinchulines, and people from the MORENA party.
We denounce the war that, from above, is being deployed against the Zapatista communities’ organizing, at the same time that above the bad governments seek to impose, throughout the country, megaprojects of death that we oppose and will oppose, because we are not willing to give up our territories and allow the destruction promised by the powerful.
We hold the paramilitary organization ORCAO, the MORENA party, the state government, and the federal government responsible for these events. They have not stopped sowing violence in the region in order to hit not only our sisters and brothers in the Zapatista communities, but to all the peoples who dream of fighting for life, of healing our mother earth and not letting her be privatized, so that the capitalist bosses and bad governments never return to the autonomous Zapatista territories, and may that light continue to flourish in the territories of the original peoples of the CNI-CIG and all of humanity.
We call on the compañeras y compañeros of support networks and networks of resistance and rebellion to speak out and mobilize against the war of extermination, which is dangerously sharpening against our sisters and brothers of the Zapatista peoples, who teach us to never stop sowing rebellion and hope.
To the peoples of Mexico and the world.

LES COMUNICAMOS QUE:
CONSIDERANDO LA AMENAZA REAL, COMPROBADA CIENTÍFICAMENTE, PARA LA VIDA HUMANA QUE REPRESENTA EL CONTAGIO DEL COVID-19, TAMBIÉN CONOCIDO COMO “CORONAVIRUS”.
CONSIDERANDO LA FRÍVOLA IRRESPONSABILIDAD Y LA FALTA DE SERIEDAD DE LOS MALOS GOBIERNOS Y DE LA CLASE POLÍTICA EN SU TOTALIDAD, QUE HACEN USO DE UN PROBLEMA HUMANITARIO PARA ATACARSE MUTUAMENTE, EN LUGAR DE TOMAR LAS MEDIDAS NECESARIAS PARA ENFRENTAR ESE PELIGRO QUE AMENAZA LA VIDA SIN DISTINCIÓN DE NACIONALIDAD, SEXO, RAZA, LENGUA, CREENCIA RELIGIOSA, MILITANCIA POLÍTICA, CONDICIÓN SOCIAL E HISTORIA.
CONSIDERANDO LA FALTA DE INFORMACIÓN VERAZ Y OPORTUNA SOBRE EL ALCANCE Y GRAVEDAD DEL CONTAGIO, ASÍ COMO LA AUSENCIA DE UN PLAN REAL PARA AFRONTAR LA AMENAZA.
CONSIDERANDO EL COMPROMISO ZAPATISTA EN NUESTRA LUCHA POR LA VIDA.
HEMOS DECIDIDO:
PRIMERO.- DECRETAR LA ALERTA ROJA EN NUESTROS PUEBLOS, COMUNIDADES Y BARRIOS, Y EN TODAS LAS INSTANCIAS ORGANIZATIVAS ZAPATISTAS.
SEGUNDO.- RECOMENDAR A LAS JUNTAS DE BUEN GOBIERNO Y MUNICIPIOS AUTONÓMOS REBELDES ZAPATISTAS, EL CIERRE TOTAL DE LOS CARACOLES Y CENTROS DE RESISTENCIA Y REBELDÍA, DE FORMA INMEDIATA.

CUARTO.- ANTE LA AUSENCIA DE LOS MALOS GOBIERNOS, EXHORTAR A TODAS, A TODOS Y A TODOAS, EN MÉXICO Y EL MUNDO, A QUE TOMEN LAS MEDIDAS SANITARIAS NECESARIAS QUE, CON BASES CIENTÍFICAS, LES PERMITAN SALIR ADELANTE Y CON VIDA DE ESTA PANDEMIA.
QUINTO.- LLAMAMOS A NO DEJAR CAER LA LUCHA CONTRA LA VIOLENCIA FEMINICIDA, A CONTINUAR LA LUCHA EN DEFENSA DEL TERRITORIO Y LA MADRE TIERRA, A MANTENER LA LUCHA POR L@S DESAPARECID@S, ASESINAD@S Y ENCARCELAD@S, Y A LEVANTAR BIEN ALTO LA BANDERA DE LA LUCHA POR LA HUMANIDAD.
SEXTO.- LLAMAMOS A NO PERDER EL CONTACTO HUMANO, SINO A CAMBIAR TEMPORALMENTE LAS FORMAS PARA SABERNOS COMPAÑERAS, COMPAÑEROS, COMPAÑEROAS, HERMANAS, HERMANOS, HERMANOAS.
LA PALABRA Y EL OÍDO, CON EL CORAZÓN, TIENEN MUCHOS CAMINOS, MUCHOS MODOS, MUCHOS CALENDARIOS Y MUCHAS GEOGRAFÍAS PARA ENCONTRARSE. Y ESTA LUCHA POR LA VIDA PUEDE SER UNO DE ELLOS.
ES TODO.
DESDE LAS MONTAÑAS DEL SURESTE MEXICANO.

Indigenous Revolutionary Clandestine Committee—General Command of the Zapatista Army for National Liberation
Mexico
March 16, 2020
To the people of Mexico:
To the peoples of the world:
To the National Indigenous Congress—Indigenous Governing Council:
To the Sixth in Mexico and abroad:
To the Networks of Resistance and Rebellion:
Sisters, brothers, hermanoas:
Compañeros, compañeras, compañeroas:
We write to inform you that:
Given the serious and scientifically proven risk to human life presented by COVID-19 or “Coronavirus”;
Given the frivolous irresponsibility and lack of seriousness shown by the bad governments and the political class in its entirety who are using this serious humanitarian problem to attack each other instead of taking the necessary measures to confront a life-threatening virus which endangers all regardless of nationality, gender, race, language, religion, political affiliation, social class, or history;
Given the lack of accurate and timely information about the spread and severity of the virus and the lack of a coherent plan to confront it, and;
Given that our commitment as Zapatistas is to struggle for life;
We have decided the following:
First: We declare a red alert in all of our communities, towns, barrios, and Zapatista organizational bodies.
Second: To the Juntas de Buen Gobierno [Good Government Councils] and the Zapatista Autonomous Municipalities in Rebellion, we recommend the full and immediate closure of the Caracoles and Centers of Resistance and Rebellion.
Third: To the bases of support and the entire Zapatista organizational structure, we recommend adherence to the series of recommendations and special hygiene measures which will be distributed in all Zapatista communities, towns, and barrios.
Fourth: Given the total absence of the bad governments, we strongly urge everyone [todos, todas, todoas] in Mexico and around the world to follow the necessary scientifically-based sanitary measures that will allow us to survive this pandemic.
Fifth: We call on you to sustain the struggle against femicides and violence against women, to continue the struggle in defense of territory and Mother Earth, to maintain the struggle for the disappeared, murdered, and imprisoned, and to hold high the flag of the struggle for humanity.
Sixth: We call on all not to lose human contact, but rather to temporarily change our forms of relating as compañeras, compañeros, compañeroas, sisters, brothers, and hermanoas.
The word, the listening ear, and the heart have many ways—paths, calendars, and geographies—in and on which to meet. This struggle for life can be one of them.
That’s all.
From the mountains of Southeastern Mexico,
For the Indigenous Revolutionary Clandestine Committee—General Command of the Zapatista Army for National Liberation,
Subcomandante Insurgente Moisés.
Mexico, March of 2020.
