Ambassador Garza on reported threats against American journalists working along the US-Mexico border

Statement by Ambassador Antonio O. Garza

Mexico City, July 13, 2007 – “I take very seriously my responsibility to ensure the safety of all Americans who visit or reside in Mexico. Threats against journalists, in an attempt to intimidate them from reporting the truth, must be condemned by all of us who understand the important role of a free press in a democratic society. We will work with authorities in the U.S. and Mexico to do everything possible to ensure the safety of American reporters working along both sides of our common border.”
