To our colleagues in the United States of America,<\/p>\n
At this time of an unprecedented, relentless assault on the free press of the United States by the Trump administration, we Mexican journalists, writers, and publishers stand in solidarity with you as you do your crucial work.<\/p>\n
For decades you have stood by us as successive governments and criminal gangs have targeted our press and assassinated our journalists for doing work in the public interest \u2013 uncovering crimes and corruption. And so many times we have only known the truth about our own country by reading the stories followed and uncovered in the US press. We urge you to continue to uphold freedom of expression as your society, institutions, and values depend upon it.<\/p>\n
You have stood with us during the darkest hours of press freedom in Mexico and, although we never could believe this day would come, we now stand with you.<\/p>\n
Most sincerely,<\/p>\n
Jennifer Clement
